Venezuela Banknotes Catalog

The history of banknotes in Venezuela is a fascinating journey through the country's economic and cultural evolution. From its first issues to the current banknotes, Venezuelan paper money has reflected the political, social and economic changes of the nation.

Current banknotes in circulation

Venezuela currently uses the sovereign bolivar as its official currency. Banknotes in circulation include denominations of 2, 5, 10, 10, 20, 50, 50, 100, 100, 200, 500, 10,000, 20,000 and 50,000 bolivars. These bills feature images of national heroes and emblematic landscapes of the country, such as the Angel Falls and the Waraira Repano.

Historical banknotes and relevant facts

The first Venezuelan banknotes were issued in 1811 by the Banco de Venezuela. Over the years, the country has experienced several monetary reconversions, the most recent being in 2008, 2018 and 2021. An important milestone in Venezuelan notafilia was the introduction of the bolivar fuerte in 2008, which eliminated three zeros from the previous denomination. Old banknotes, such as the 100 bolivar with the effigy of Simón Bolívar, are now highly prized collector's items by numismatists.
