Ancient banknotes and historical evolution

Djibouti's first banknotes were issued shortly after independence and featured portraits of political leaders and scenes from daily life. In 1988, a new series was introduced highlighting the country's flora and fauna. An important milestone in Djiboutian notafilia was the 20th anniversary of independence commemorative issue in 1997, which featured a special design celebrating the country's history and progress. Over the years, banknotes have evolved to better reflect the national identity and improve security measures against counterfeiting.
