The formula
How to convert CNY to EUR
Turning Chinese Yuan into Euros needs nothing more than today's rate and a multiplication. On 11 August 2026 that rate is 0.12846, so:
EUR = CNY × 0.12846
Reverse the direction and you divide rather than multiply. Equivalently, one Euro is worth 7.7845 Chinese Yuan.
The converter at the top of this page does both directions and updates as you type. Every result is recalculated on the server as well, so the number you see is the number that gets stored.
Note: the rate feed has not refreshed recently, so the figure above may lag the market.
About the Chinese Yuan and the Euro
The Chinese Yuan (CNY, symbol ¥) is the currency of China. The Euro (EUR, symbol €) is the currency of the eurozone.
Neither currency is pegged to the other, so the figure drifts from one session to the next. What you see is the market midpoint, updated once a day. A bank or bureau will quote something a little worse.
Worked CNY to EUR examples
A price tag. Something marked ¥50 comes to 6.423 EUR. Round to 6 EUR for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. ¥3,000 a month is 385.38 EUR — useful when you are comparing a job offer across the two markets. Bear in mind the rate moves, so a figure agreed today will not be the figure paid out in six months.
Going the other way. If you are holding €1,000 and want to know what it buys in Chinese Yuan, that is 7784.5 CNY. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your ¥500 would fetch roughly 62.3033 EUR instead of 64.2302 EUR. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.
One Chinese Yuan is worth 0.12846 Euros as of 11 August 2026. The rate comes from the daily reference feed and refreshes automatically every morning.
At today's rate, 100 Chinese Yuan come to 12.846042 EUR. The converter handles any amount, in either direction.
Almost certainly not. What you see here is the mid-market rate, the midpoint of the market. Every retail provider takes a cut on top of it. The value of knowing the mid-market figure is being able to measure that cut.
