Banknotes of United Arab Emirates

The official currency of the United Arab Emirates is the dirham, issued by the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates. Paper money was first introduced in 1973, with the release of several denominations. In 1982, a major reform occurred when a new series was issued, incorporating advanced security features and modern designs, replacing the earlier notes. Collectors are drawn to the banknotes of the United Arab Emirates due to their vibrant colors and intricate designs. A standout series from the catalog is the 2008 issue, which features high-tech security elements, such as color-shifting inks and holograms, reflecting the country’s commitment to innovation and security in currency design.
