General information: 2006 - 2013 Issues
With the exception of the 1,000-ngultrum denomination, these notes were designed by Giesecke & Devrient and initially printed by Thomas De La Rue. However, in 2013, the production of the 1- and 10-ngultrum notes switched to G&D, and the substrate for these denominations also changed from paper to Louisenthals Hybrid, a paper/polymer substrate.

More information about Simtokha Dzong (at the back):
Simtokha Dzong is a small dzong located about 3 miles (4.8 km) south of the Bhutanese capital of Thimphu. Built in 1629 by Ngawang Namgyal, who unified Bhutan, the dzong is the first of its kind built in Bhutan. An important historical monument and former Buddhist monastery, today it houses one of the premier Dzongkha language learning institutes. It recently underwent renovation.
