Scope

What the official total covers

Hong Kong is a special administrative region whose official GDP is published in Hong Kong dollars. Its population definition includes usual and mobile residents, and its compact land area produces very high density.

Definitions

Population, land area and boundary

End-2024 total population, including usual and mobile residents. Administrative land area is 1,114.57 sq km. Land area only; sea area excluded.

Currency

Official local currency and indicative CNY values

International scale check

Compared with Bangladesh

Selected for similar economic scale: Bangladesh.

Not a like-for-like rank

Bangladesh's nominal GDP (~US$0.34T, World Bank 2024) is close to Hong Kong's official or officially derived US-dollar GDP (~US$0.41T).

Hong Kong is a compact special administrative region and international finance, trade and services centre; Bangladesh is a sovereign country. GDP proximity is a scale reference only. Currency, population definition, area, administrative status and economic structure are not directly comparable.
