The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) has updated its banknotes five years after their previous redesign.

The revised notes now include:

The signature of CBK Governor Dr. Kamau Thugge.

The signature of National Treasury Principal Secretary Dr. Chris Kiptoo.

A print year of 2024.

Enhanced security threads with color-changing effects unique to each denomination.

All other features remain as they were in the 2019 series.
