   **Retail board rates.** These are the prices Bank of Ningbo displayed on [its own rates page](https://www.nbcb.com.cn/home_page/jrxx/whsshk/) when we last read it. They are indicative, change through the day, and are not official rates.

## About Bank of Ningbo

 [www.nbcb.com.cn](https://www.nbcb.com.cn/)

Bank of Ningbo is a city commercial bank headquartered in Ningbo, Zhejiang. Its real-time FX rates page lists spot-exchange and cash buying rates and a selling rate against the yuan for 12 currencies, each with its own quote time.

## ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/cn.png) Latest board, read 15 Nov 2026, 06:53 China time (0h ago)

Bank’s own last-updated stamp: **2026-11-15 06:53:13 (Beijing)** (as printed on its page, local time).

Board shown: **Spot exchange (transfer) buy / sell**. Banks outside the Gulf publish several boards for the same currency — counter notes, drafts, transfers, cards — and this page shows one of them, the same one for every bank in China so the comparison is like for like. The others are on the bank’s own page.

### Python

    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer art_live_your_key"},
    timeout=10,

## Endpoints

- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/cn` — every covered bank in China, latest board each, plus `official_source` and `official_date`.
- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/cn/nbcb` — one bank’s latest board.
- `?ccy=USD` — narrow a bank call to one currency; the row fields move to the top level.
- `?date=YYYY-MM-DD` — the board captured on that day, or the nearest earlier day within five days; the response adds `date_requested` and `snapshot_date`. Every plan.
- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/cn/nbcb/history?ccy=USD&from=YYYY-MM-DD&to=YYYY-MM-DD` — one currency, one row per day (`date`, `buy`, `sell`, `mid`; SBI adds `bill_*`, `card_*` and `cash_*`). Defaults to the last year; `&format=csv`, `xml` or `xlsx`. Paid plans, one call per month covered. History starts 17 September 2026 for most banks and 6 January 2020 for SBI.

## Response fields

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `quote_ccy` | CNY. Every price is CNY per 1 unit of `ccy`. |
| `buy` | What the bank pays you in CNY for one unit of foreign currency. |
| `sell` | What the bank charges you in CNY for one unit — the rate for sending money abroad. |
| `mid`, `spread_pct` | Midpoint of buy and sell; spread = (sell − buy) ÷ mid, in percent. |
| `official`, `vs_official_pct` | The People’s Bank of China rate for the same currency and how far the bank’s mid sits from it. |
| `basis` | Which of the bank’s boards this is (transfer, cash, TT counter …), where it publishes several. |
| `captured_at` | When AllRatesToday read the bank’s page (UTC). Boards are read hourly. |
| `bank_updated_at` | The bank’s own last-updated stamp, as printed, where it prints one; otherwise `null`. |

## Errors and limits

- `401` — no key or an invalid key. Any plan’s key works, the free one included.
- `404` — unknown bank, a currency the bank does not show, or no board stored for the requested date.
- `400` — `date` not in `YYYY-MM-DD` form, or in the future.
- Each call counts against your plan. Responses can be cached for five minutes; past-day boards never change.
- Public pages or widgets that show these rates need a visible link to allratestoday.com.

## Why use bank board rates through an API?

The People’s Bank of China official rate is what accounting, tax and customs rules name, but it is not what a customer pays at the counter or in an app. Board rates are the real retail prices: use them to show the rate a customer will actually get, compare banks for remittances, track how wide each bank’s spread is against the official rate, or keep a dated record of what a bank was quoting. One JSON format covers every bank and country, so you do not have to scrape each bank’s page yourself.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Bank of Ningbo rate the official China exchange rate?

No. Bank of Ningbo sets its own buying and selling rates and changes them through the day. The official rate is published once per business day by the People’s Bank of China; it is shown in the Official column and is the figure accounting, tax and customs rules refer to.

### Which Bank of Ningbo rate applies when I send money abroad?

The sell rate: you are buying foreign currency from the bank. When you convert foreign currency into CNY, the buy rate applies. Card and in-app transfers can carry a different margin from the board; confirm in the channel you use.

### How current is this table?

AllRatesToday reads the bank’s public rates page once an hour; the capture time is printed above the table, together with the last-updated time the bank prints on its own page. Rates may have changed since.

### Do you have historical Bank of Ningbo rates?

Yes, from 15 Nov 2026 onwards, one board per day. One day: /api/v1/bank-rates/cn/nbcb?date=YYYY-MM-DD (every plan). A range: /api/v1/bank-rates/cn/nbcb/history?ccy=USD (paid plans).
