Current banknotes in circulation
The Kazakh tenge has been the official currency of Kazakhstan since 1993. The current banknotes belong to the series introduced in 2006, with denominations ranging from 200 to 20,000 tenge. These banknotes feature modern designs that reflect the country's culture and achievements, including images of national monuments, historical figures and patriotic symbols. The series was last updated in 2017, incorporating advanced security measures to prevent counterfeiting.
Old banknotes and milestones in Kazakh notability.
The first tenge banknotes were issued in 1993, shortly after the country's independence. These early issues had a simpler design and lower denominations due to the high inflation of the time. An important milestone was the introduction of the 2006 series, which marked a significant change in the design and quality of the banknotes. In 2011, Kazakhstan issued a commemorative 10,000 tenge bill to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its independence, considered one of the most beautiful in the world for its innovative design and security features.
