Reclining National Bank Photocopy of commemorative banknotes But it is difficult to pretend, the absence of the EURion (U Ryan) is not a mistake.
Mr. Somboon Jit is the assistant governor of the bank card issuance line. The Bank of Thailand (BOT) wishes to clear up the misunderstanding regarding the commemorative note at the 2019 Royal Coronation Ceremony as follows:
1. A banknote without EURion (Uryan) is not intended to be easily forged. EURion is one of the forms of copy protection for a copier or scan, but it is not the most necessary or essential way to prevent production counterfeiting Many countries in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe do not adopt EURion, but rather which focus on providing anti-counterfeiting feature to make it easier for people to spot and scammers make it difficult to fake reality.
As with most commemorative banknotes produced in the past, the EURion was not used. But it has a number of anti-counterfeiting characteristics and continues to adopt advanced standard anti-counterfeiting technology like all the circulated and commemorative banknotes of the past.
However, if the banknotes are counterfeited by scanning and printing them Used paper and ink AND that watermark will never make it look like a real banknote. People can be immediately distinguished as counterfeit bills “by tapping, lifting, turning, tipping”, which they can easily check for themselves.
• Experience the price type stamping on the corner of the banknote and the word of the Thai government.
• Lift the watermark on the paper, the 100 baht bill will see the royal statue AND the 1000 baht bills will see the watermark of the King Rama V logo.
• Tilt to view the magenta band. The face of the 100 baht note can be moved up and down and turn green. Also within the flower pattern Pikul of the 1000 baht bills has a circular shape that moves and changes from gold to green.
2. Banknotes issued by the BOT, even without EURion, meet strict anti-counterfeiting standards and can be exchanged for foreign currency. All tickets issued by the BOT can be used for legal reimbursement. Therefore, commemorative banknotes can be used for various transactions in the country like normal banknotes. At first, merchants and money changers may not be familiar with the new banknotes. But later it was announced that the commemorative ticket was accepted.
To exchange baht banknotes abroad The Thai baht is not an international currency. It is not yet widely used in other countries. Banks or foreign exchange service providers may or may not accept banknotes, regardless of the presence or absence of EURion, but it depends on whether there is sufficient buy and sell demand from customers to complete the transaction.

3. New commemorative banknotes with reserve funds 100% backed by the issuance of all types of Thai banknotes, price Both normal circulation and commemorative banknotes comply with currency laws. Have 100% of the foreign exchange reserve backed

People can check the amount of tickets issued. Included foreign exchange reserve Can be obtained from BOT’s weekly financial status report
4. Issuance of commemorative banknotes does not count as QE (Quantitative Easing) practice of the Bank of Thailand. Bank of Thailand in banknote management to meet the needs of the people. For the payment of goods and services in the economy (Including saving or keeping as a souvenir) The amount of banknotes circulating in the system is mainly determined by the needs of people and companies such as the New Year and the Songkran period. That people need cash expenses The Bank of Thailand had to issue more notes. And when the festival passes The people’s demand for cash has decreased, the BOT withdraws cash from the system, in conclusion, the BOT cannot increase the amount of issued tickets. If individuals and businesses have no need to withdraw cash from commercial banks.
Regarding doing QE abroad Injecting the central bank liquidity Enter the economy through the accounts of financial institutions. He is not involved in ticketing in any way.
5. The number of commemorative banknotes issued for collection is very small compared to normal circulation banknotes, so they are placed in ATMs to facilitate public access. 10-20 million banknotes, which is very small compared to around 1.7 billion regular 100 baht bills and around 1.6 billion baht of 1000 baht bills. Facilitate public access to commemorative tickets. No need to queue for change at a branch of a commercial bank
6. Commemorative banknotes cannot be used with automatic deposit machines.
