contents We derive a fully analytical, one-line closed-form expression for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the product of two correlated zero-mean normal random variables, avoiding any series representation. This result complements the well-known compact density formula with an equally compact and computationally practical CDF representation. Our main formula expresses the CDF in terms of Humbert's confluent hypergeometric function $Φ_1$ and modified Bessel functions $K_ν$, offering both theoretical elegance and computational efficiency. High-precision numerical experiments confirm pointwise agreement with Monte Carlo simulations and other benchmarks to machine accuracy. The resulting representation provides a tractable tool for applications in wireless fading channel modeling, nonlinear signal processing, statistics, finance, and applied probability.
