Vietnam's polymer series was introduced in stages beginning in 2003, with the State Bank contracting Note Printing Australia — a subsidiary of the Reserve Bank of Australia — to produce the higher denominations. The shift away from cotton-paper notes was driven partly by durability concerns in Vietnam's humid climate, where paper notes deteriorated rapidly in circulation, and partly by counterfeiting pressure that had become a genuine policy problem through the late 1990s.
The transparent window, integrated into the polymer substrate rather than added as a foil patch, was considered a meaningful deterrent at the time of introduction. By the mid-2010s, domestic counterfeiters had developed workarounds, prompting periodic public warnings from the State Bank — though the note itself was not redesigned in response.
