More info about these series:
In the early 2010s, Somalia’s Transitional Federal Government ordered a new family of banknotes to be printed in Sudan.
By 2013, Somalia’s new federal government declared that the introduction of the notes was postponed until an unspecified later date, pending the strengthening of financial institutions in Somalia.
In 2018, the Central Bank of Somalia indicated that the government and the International Monetary Fund was preparing to print new 1.000, 2.000, 5.000*, 10.000, 20.000, and 50.000 Shilin notes.
In 2021, the Central Bank of Somalia said that huge amounts of Somali Shilin notes remained in a Sudanese warehouse.
In 2023, a civil war broke out in Sudan between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Subsequently these unissued Somali notes began to appear scattered on the streets of Khartoum.
