1.000 Yuan

The Bank of Taiwan's 1,000 Yuan note from 1981 was issued under the long-running Republic of China currency system that has operated parallel to — and deliberately distinct from — the People's Republic's renminbi since 1949. The Central Engraving and Printing Plant in Taipei, which handles both banknote and stamp production for the ROC, printed this series entirely domestically, a capacity Taiwan had worked to develop rather than rely on foreign security printers.

The watermark remains the sole listed security feature, modest by the standards of high-denomination notes from that period.
