The 2024 series marks Japan's first full banknote redesign since 2004, and the first time the National Printing Bureau incorporated a 3D hologram strip of this type into a yen note — a move driven largely by increasingly sophisticated domestic counterfeiting detected in the preceding decade. The printing bureau had been developing the new security substrate for several years before the July 2024 release date was confirmed.
Despite the redesign, the 1000 yen note retains cotton fiber substrate, consistent with every Bank of Japan note issued since the postwar reconstruction series.
