Withdrawal of the 10 Pound paper note

A few weeks ago we announced the arrival of the new 10 Pound polymer note and today the time has come for the withdrawal of its predecessor: the 10 Pound paper note.

Official Withdrawal March 1st

At our exchange offices we can’t accept 10 Pound paper notes since last Thursday, February 8th. However, the official withdrawal in the United Kingdom will be next March 1st.

So these notes can still be used in the United Kingdom during the month of February.

What happens next?

If after March 1st you still have 10 Pound notes in paper, you can only make the change in the Bank of England, where they will exchange them for polymer ones.
