| Comments |
Brunei's switch to polymer for this denomination follows a broader pattern across Southeast Asia, but the timing here is specific: the 2024 issue updates an existing series rather than inaugurating one, with the Autoriti Monetari Brunei Darussalam having first introduced polymer substrate notes in earlier lower denominations as a trial before committing the higher-value notes to the format. Polymer circulation in humid equatorial climates has consistently outperformed cotton-linen stock on longevity metrics, which is the practical logic behind the transition.
The Brunei dollar remains pegged at par with the Singapore dollar under a 1967 Currency Interchangeability Agreement that is still legally in force — meaning this note is accepted at face value in Singapore, an unusual arrangement between two sovereign states that has outlasted considerable geopolitical change.
