The Bank of Jamaica (BOJ) says it will continue to exchange paper £20 and £50 notes, even as its counterpart in England withdraws the legal tender status of these bills on 30 September.
The BOJ said it will continue to follow the usual verification of the authenticity of notes and customer due diligence as required by the Bank’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) policy and operating procedures.
It accepts all foreign currencies for which it publishes a counter value. A list of them is available on the BOJ website.
Therefore, until advised otherwise, the central bank of Jamaica will continue to accept these £20 and £50 paper notes for exchange at its bank counters.
