| Obverse description | Intaglio portrait of Tjut Meutia, the Acehnese national heroine, dominates the central field against a multicolour guilloche underprint, with the outline map of the Indonesian archipelago and the Garuda Pancasila coat of arms positioned to the upper left. The Bank Indonesia logo functions as a see-through registration device, while the issuer name, denomination in both numerals and text, and the countersignatures of the Governor of Bank Indonesia and the Minister of Finance are arranged in the surrounding field. Denomination numerals appear at left and right margins. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette presents Fort Belgica, the Dutch colonial fortress on Banda Neira island in the Banda Islands of Maluku Province, set within a multicolour guilloche underprint. An intaglio vignette of a dancer performing the Tari Tifa — a traditional dance with a cylindrical drum — appears alongside a stylised orchid motif. The place name BANDA NEIRA and a full legal-tender declaration in Bahasa Indonesia with the emission year are inscribed across the lower portion of the note. |

Bank Indonesia has issued 1000 Rupiah notes continuously for decades, but the 2022–2023 dating places this squarely in the post-reform series that followed the 2016 redenomination discussions — discussions that ultimately went nowhere, leaving the existing nominal structure intact. Perum Peruri, the state security printer established in 1971 and based in Karawang, West Java, handles the entire Indonesian currency print run domestically, an arrangement that has been a point of deliberate economic policy since the Suharto era.
Watermark-only security at this denomination reflects the note's low purchasing power — roughly six US cents — making sophisticated anti-counterfeiting measures economically unjustifiable against the cost of production.
