The current family of banknotes used in Botswana was launched on August 21, 2009. The banknotes family includes five notes in a denomination structure comprising P10, P20, P50, P100 and P200.
All banknotes, except the P200 banknote, which was introduced in 2009, retain the basic designs, colour and layout as the earlier banknotes.
On February 22, 2021, the Bank issued into circulation the third emission of the P10 banknote. The P10 banknote features the portrait of His Excellency the President Dr Mokgweetsi Eric Keabetswe Masisi, and the signatures of the then Minister of Finance and Economic Development, Dr Thapelo Matsheka and Governor, Moses Dinekere Pelaelo.
All banknotes show a rampant zebra watermark as a key security feature.
