Bangladesh's Security Printing Corporation in Gazipur has handled domestic banknote production since 1988, reducing the country's longstanding dependence on foreign printers — a shift that took decades to consolidate after independence. This 2025 issue is among the more recent products of that facility, printed entirely on home soil with locally managed security integration.

The specification is modest: watermark and security thread only, no optical variable ink or color-shifting features. Whether that reflects a deliberate cost decision or a production limitation at Gazipur is worth noting for collectors tracking the series.
