The Djiboutian Franc (DJF) is the official currency of Djibouti, issued by the Banque Nationale de Djibouti.
The modern series features bold, colourful designs that highlight the country’s maritime heritage, cultural identity, and strategic position at the entrance to the Red Sea.
Current notes incorporate updated security features, durable materials, and clear denomination layouts suited to everyday use.
These notes form the primary legal tender across Djibouti and remain widely recognised throughout the Horn of Africa.
Exchanging your DJF notes is straightforward 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 current enhanced‑security series, Djibouti issued several earlier generations of Franc banknotes.
These older notes often feature traditional layouts, earlier portraits, and designs reflecting the country’s French colonial history and early independence period.
Many were gradually replaced as the Banque Nationale de Djibouti modernised its currency and strengthened anti‑counterfeiting measures.
Although no longer used in everyday transactions, many outdated Djiboutian Franc notes still retain redeemable value and remain of interest to collectors due to their distinctive artwork and historical significance.
