The CFP Franc (XPF) is the official currency used across the French overseas collectivities of French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna.
In French Polynesia, the notes are issued by the Institut d’Émission d’Outre‑Mer (IEOM) and feature distinctive designs celebrating the region’s natural beauty, maritime heritage, and Polynesian cultural identity.
The modern XPF series incorporates updated security features, refined colour palettes, and detailed illustrations that reflect the islands’ unique character.
These notes form the primary legal tender throughout French Polynesia and remain widely recognised across the Pacific region.
Exchanging your XPF notes is simple and secure.
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 latest enhanced‑security series, French Polynesia used several earlier generations of CFP Franc banknotes.
These older notes often feature different colour schemes, traditional horizontal layouts, and earlier artistic styles that have since been replaced.
Although no longer used in everyday transactions, many of these withdrawn notes still retain redeemable value.
At Thecurrencycounter.co.uk, we accept a wide range of outdated and withdrawn CFP Franc notes from French Polynesia, including early IEOM issues, transitional designs, and denominations no longer seen in circulation.
