The National Bank of Romania, as a central bank, has to ensure smooth cash supply.
To this end, the NBR issued Regulation no. 4/2013 on checking the quality of Romanian banknotes for re-issue (Romanian only), establishing the framework for credit institutions/The State Treasury to recycle Romanian banknotes.
In accordance with Regulation no. 4/2013, credit institutions/The State Treasury can recycle only the banknotes which have been classified as fit for circulation by a cash processing equipment which has been successfully tested by the National Bank of Romania.
Cash processing equipments which have successfully passed the tests conducted by the National Bank of Romania will be listed on NBR’s website, the day following the outcome of the test.
