The Trinidad and Tobago Coat of Arms appears on the front of each denomination of notes together with a vignette of a local bird, while the reverse side showcases the Central Bank building and a scene that is integral to the economic life of the country. The notes are made of polymer substrate with each of the six (6) denomination – the $1 is red, the $5 is green, the $10 is grey, the $20 is purple, the $50 is golden and the $100 is blue.
The notes of the polymer series are equipped with enhanced security features such as the raised dot tactile feature at the bottom corner of each note, in a shape unique to each denomination and a clear window that can be seen from the front and back of each denomination.
All banknotes bearing series dates prior to 2020 are now no longer legal tender. The redemption of the $1, $5, $10, $20 and $50 notes bearing series dates prior to 2020 will be facilitated indefinitely at the Central Bank.

The Central Bank’s Know Your Money annual campaign normally takes the form of a series of 90-minute seminars. These sessions are a collaborative effort between the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago and De La Rue Currency, the Bank’s note printers. At the sessions participants are educated on the key security features of our local bank notes. These sessions are supported by year-long outreach and targeted activities designed to reinforce the learnings as well as increase the reach of the campaigns.
