To commemorate the 70th Birth Anniversary of His Majesty the Fourth Druk Gyalpo Jigme Singye Wangchuck, the Royal Monetary Authority (RMA) unveiled three new commemorative Ngultrum banknotes.

The newly introduced denominations Nu 1000, Nu 500, and Nu 100 represent the next generation of Bhutanese currency, featuring enhanced security elements and printed on recyclable, sustainable, and durable polymer material.

Compared to paper substrates, polymer notes are longer-lasting and more environmentally friendly, a standard increasingly adopted by central banks worldwide. All earlier Ngultrum series will continue to remain legal tender.

Beyond their economic role, these new banknotes embody Bhutan’s heritage and the enduring legacy of the Wangchuck Dynasty.

Each note carries a symbolic narrative that reflects the nation’s unity, spiritual values, and its guiding philosophy of Gross National Happiness.

Apart from inaugurating the project some MoUs will also be signed.
