Turkmenistan's second manat series, introduced in 2009, replaced the first manat at par — a deliberate contrast to the catastrophic 1993 introduction, when the first manat arrived amid post-Soviet hyperinflation that had already gutted purchasing power. The 2009 reissue was partly cosmetic, partly a rebranding exercise under Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, who had consolidated power after Niyazov's death in 2006 and was keen to distance official symbolism from his predecessor's personality cult.

Giesecke & Devrient's Leipzig facility handled the printing — the same plant responsible for several other Central Asian issues of the period. The OVI ink shift on the denomination numeral is among the more technically capable security features deployed in this region at that time.
