The Cayman Islands Dollar (KYD) is the official currency of the Cayman Islands, issued by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority.
The modern series features vibrant, security‑enhanced banknotes showcasing the islands’ natural beauty, marine life, and cultural heritage.
Each denomination includes advanced anti‑counterfeiting elements, refined colour palettes, and detailed imagery reflecting the Cayman Islands’ status as a leading financial centre and a world‑renowned Caribbean destination.
These notes form the primary legal tender used throughout Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, and Little Cayman, and are widely recognised across the region.
Exchanging your KYD notes is simple and secure.
Just enter the amount you wish to exchange into your wallet and proceed with the exchange, and everything will be handled quickly and efficiently.
Before the introduction of the current enhanced‑security series, the Cayman Islands issued several earlier generations of Dollar banknotes featuring traditional layouts, older portraits of Queen Elizabeth II, and earlier security elements.
These withdrawn notes often display different colour palettes, design styles, and printing techniques that reflect the islands’ earlier monetary history.
Although these older KYD notes are no longer used in everyday transactions, many still retain redeemable value.
Early paper issues, transitional designs, and denominations replaced by newer series remain of interest to collectors and exchangers alike.
