Singapore notes and coins

  • Singapore’s banknotes come in denominations of S$2, S$5, S$10, S$50, S$100, and the baller-level S$1,000 and S$10,000 (yes, you read that right—talk about making a statement). 
  • These polymer beauties feature everything from the Tembusu tree on the green $5 note to national heroes and cultural landmarks.
  • For coins, you’ve got 5 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, and the iconic S$1 coin, perfect for snagging street snacks, MRT rides, or, let’s be real, being flicked dramatically into a fountain for good luck. 

Fun facts about Singapore banknotes

  • The S$1,000 note isn’t just for big spenders—it’s a karaoke companion with the entire national anthem printed on it!
  • During WWII, Singapore used “banana money,” so-called because the notes featured a banana tree. 
  • The $5 note celebrates the Tembusu tree, a Botanic Gardens legend standing since 1859. Plus, Brunei Dollars are interchangeable with SGD, making it even more versatile. 
  • If you laid all the SGD notes in circulation side by side, they’d lap Singapore’s coastline over 600 times. How’s that for impressive?

Travel Money Trivia

  • The Singapore Dollar (SGD) isn’t just money—it’s a cultural icon! First introduced in 1967, it ditched the Malaysian Ringgit and struck out on its own as one of Asia’s most respected currencies. 
  • With its eco-friendly polymer notes and jaw-dropping stability, SGD is the Beyoncé of the currency world: reliable, iconic, and impossible to ignore.
