BGN 2 banknotes cease to be legal tender

The Governing Council of the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) pursuant to Art. 25, para. 7 of the BNB Act adopted an Ordinance amending Ordinance № 39 of the BNB on the face value, content, form and design of banknotes and coins put into circulation.

The changes result from the withdrawal of banknotes with a face value of BGN 2, issues in 1999 and 2005, which as of January 1, 2021 cease to be legal tender.
