The Bank of Ghana says its new Heritage Series banknotes will continue to use traditional cotton material, reinforced for durability and security, citing Ghana's tropical climate and high humidity as reasons against switching to plastic or polymer notes. Cotton-based banknotes are also used in the United States and several European countries, the BoG noted.
The Bank of Ghana has confirmed that existing banknotes will remain legal tender and circulate alongside the new Heritage Series when introduced on November 3, 2026; no rush to exchange is needed, and both versions will co-circulate for transactions.
The Bank of Ghana has clarified that its "Heritage Series" rollout on November 3, 2026, involves upgrading existing banknote denominations rather than introducing new notes or higher denominations such as GH¢500 cedis. According to the Director of the Currency Management Department, the upgraded notes will feature improved security features, durability, and modern designs reflecting Ghana's heritage, and will co-circulate with existing cedi banknotes.
The Bank of Ghana says the new Heritage Series banknotes are intended to modernise the cedi while preserving its identity as a symbol of Ghana's sovereignty, economic identity and national pride. The Heritage Series is scheduled to be officially launched on November 3, 2026, at the Bank Square in Accra.
