About the Kenyan Shilling to Chinese Yuan rate
This page converts the Kenyan Shilling (KES) into the Chinese Yuan (CNY) at the mid-market rate. Both currencies trade continuously on the foreign exchange market, and the ratio between them moves with interest rates, inflation and the trade flows between their economies. The rate shown here is the neutral reference each bank, card network and bureau de change then builds its own price on top of.
Every figure on this page is a mid-market reading of KES/CNY, dated above. It says where the pair stood at that time, not where it is heading: no rate here is a forecast, a quote, or an offer to exchange.

Is 0.05145 the rate my bank will give me?
No. 0.05145 is the mid-market rate for KES to CNY, the midpoint between the buy and sell price and the rate before anyone adds a margin. A bank, a card network or a bureau de change quotes a lower rate on this pair and may charge a fee on top, so expect to receive less than the converted figure shown here.
What is the KES to CNY exchange rate?
One KES is worth 0.05145 CNY, and one CNY is worth 19.4360 KES, at the time shown under the rate. The figure comes from ExchangeRate-API: it is a mid-market reading rather than a live trading price, and every figure on this page, the converter included, uses it.
How do I convert CNY back to KES?
Use the inverse rate: one CNY is worth 19.4360 KES, so multiply your Chinese Yuan amount by that figure. You can also swap the two currencies in the converter above and the table recalculates in the other direction.
Can I convert KES to CNY without internet?
Yes, in the Android app. It stores the last synced KES to CNY rate on the device and keeps converting with no connection, then updates as soon as you are online again. This website needs a connection, because it fetches the rate when the page loads.
Why does the KES to CNY rate keep changing?
The Kenyan Shilling and the Chinese Yuan are priced against each other continuously on the currency market. Interest rates, inflation, trade flows and political news all move the pair, which is why the rate you saw in the morning is rarely the rate you see at night.
Convert KES to CNY offline
The Android app keeps the last synced rates on your phone, so KES to CNY still converts with no connection: on a plane, in a metro, or abroad without a data plan. It also converts one source currency into several targets on one screen, charts the history of every pair, and can send you a push notification when KES/CNY crosses a level you set.
