10 000 Kip

The 10,000 Kip note has been a workhorse denomination in Laos for decades, repeatedly reissued with incremental security upgrades as counterfeiting pressure increased across the Mekong subregion. The P#41B designation places this squarely in a modern revision run — same basic design family, adjusted security package. Paper substrate at this denomination is itself worth noting: neighboring economies moved to polymer for comparable values years earlier, but the Bank of the Lao PDR has been slower to make that transition.

A watermark-only security profile is modest for a 2020 issue at this face value.
