This note began life as a Macau issue before being overprinted with "PAGAVEL EM TIMOR" — payable in Timor — and a new denomination, effectively converting existing Banco Nacional Ultramarino stock for circulation in Portuguese Timor rather than commissioning an entirely separate print run. The practice was economical but not unusual for the BNU, which managed currency across Portugal's scattered colonial territories from a single institutional apparatus.
Portuguese Timor's monetary situation in 1946 was still unsettled following the Japanese occupation, which had run from 1942 to 1945 and left the colony's earlier circulating currency badly disrupted. The overprint was a stopgap measure while more permanent arrangements were established.
