About this Amount in Words converter

Amounts on reimbursement forms, contracts, cheques and receipts must be written in Chinese capital characters to prevent tampering. The rules look simple but have many details: "exactly" is added when the amount ends at the yuan with no jiao or fen, the wording differs when there are jiao but no fen, consecutive zeros are read as one zero, and there's even a convention between writing "one-ten-thousand" and "ten-thousand".

The tool converts as you type, supporting up to 12 integer digits (trillions) and 2 decimal places, auto-generating finance-standard RMB capital amounts — one click to copy.

How to use

  1. Type the amount (thousand separators and ¥ accepted)
  2. Choose whether to add the "RMB" prefix
  3. The capital amount shows live on the right; click "Copy" to use it

FAQ

When is 整 (flat) required at the end?
When the amount ends at the yuan with no jiao or fen, write "exactly" at the end: ¥100.00 → RMB One Hundred Yuan Exactly. With jiao but no fen (e.g. 20.40) it reads "twenty yuan four jiao exactly"; with both jiao and fen, no trailing "exactly".
How to read zeros in the middle?
Consecutive zeros in the middle are read as a single zero: 1008.05 → One Thousand Zero Eight Yuan Zero Five Fen; but zeros at the end of each scale (wan, yi) aren't read: 10000 → Ten Thousand Yuan Exactly.
Can 壹拾 be shortened to 拾?
Under finance standards, when the leading figures are "one-ten" (yishi), write them out in full (e.g. One-Ten-Thousand Yuan Exactly) to prevent tampering by adding characters in front; some banks require this on cheques.
