Trinidad and Tobago made the switch to polymer for its lower denominations over the course of the 2010s, with De La Rue's SAFEGUARD® substrate gradually replacing cotton-paper across the series. The 2020 dating on this note reflects a continuation of that rollout rather than a redesign — the note retains the same imagery introduced when polymer was first adopted for the denomination.
SAFEGUARD® notes from this series are known to retain ink adhesion poorly in tropical humidity over extended circulation, a practical irony given the Caribbean climate they were engineered to withstand.
