| Descripción del anverso | A full-length vignette of a Melanesian chief in traditional attire occupies the centre-right of the note, set against a circular guilloche underprint incorporating a map of the Vanuatu archipelago and decorative geometric patterns. To the left, a conch shell motif rendered in dark tones serves as the transparent window security element characteristic of the polymer substrate. The denomination '2000' appears in large numerals in the upper centre, flanked by the bilingual bank title in the upper and lower margins. |

The 2000 Vatu denomination was introduced specifically on polymer substrate as part of Vanuatu's broader shift away from paper currency, a move completed incrementally through the 2010s. Oberthur Fiduciaire, better known for its work with African and Pacific issuers, handled the print run from its French facilities.
The 2000 Vatu sits at the top of the current circulation series — a high-value note in a country where the vatu has no subdivisions, a structural oddity dating back to the 1981 monetary reform that replaced the joint New Hebrides franc system following independence from joint Anglo-French condominium rule.
