Comments

Brunei's switch to polymer for this denomination is notable — the 500 Dollar note is high-value enough that substrate durability and counterfeit resistance carry serious practical weight in a small, trade-dependent economy where large-denomination notes see real commercial use rather than sitting idle in wallets. AMBD has issued polymer notes before, but the 2024 series marks a continuation of the authority's gradual migration away from cotton paper across its higher denominations.

The Monetary Agreement between Brunei and Singapore, in force since 1967, means the Brunei Dollar circulates at par with the Singapore Dollar — making the integrity of high-value notes a bilateral concern, not merely a domestic one.
