Belarus issues improved 20- and 50-ruble banknotes
The National Bank of the Republic of Belarus announced the issue of improved 20- and 50-rubles banknotes. The new notes have been issued from 23 March 2020.
The security features of the updated banknotes are enhanced by an additional watermark and a wider security thread. The banknote of 50 rubles also includes images with an optically variable effect. Other changes from the existing design:
- The text "Старшыня Праўлення" and signatures are removed.
- The images of architectural constructions on the front of banknotes are brought in line with the actual appearance of the objects and their names are displayed.
- The year of issue has been changed to "2020" from "2009".
- The text "ПЯЦЬДЗЕСЯТ" on the 50-ruble banknote is changed into "ПЯЦЬДЗЯСЯТ".
The new banknotes have been printed by Russian printer Goznak. The old notes of the same denomination will remain legal tender.
