Currency notes are more than just a medium of exchange — they are secure instruments designed to prevent counterfeiting while reflecting national identity. In Pakistan, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has incorporated a comprehensive set of security features across its currency notes, ranging from Rs. 10 to Rs. 5,000, to ensure their authenticity and safety in circulation.
Each denomination contains unique visual and tactile features that help users — especially retailers, banks, and the visually impaired — verify a note’s legitimacy. Below are the links to the key security features embedded in Pakistani banknotes:
