Is the Rs.10 Note Being Phased Out in 2026? What Pakistanis Need to Know
Speculation about the future of the Rs.10 currency note has been circulating widely, raising concerns among citizens about whether the government plans to discontinue it in 2026. As of now, there is no official announcement from the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) confirming the withdrawal of the Rs.10 note from circulation.
Officials clarify that currency notes remain legal tender unless the SBP formally notifies banks and the public. While Pakistan has gradually increased the use of coins and higher-denomination notes to reduce printing costs, the Rs.10 note is still actively used in daily transactions, especially for transport, small retail purchases, and change.

In recent years, the government has focused more on improving note durability, promoting digital payments, and expanding branchless banking rather than abruptly discontinuing low-value notes. Any decision to phase out a currency denomination typically involves a long transition period to avoid public inconvenience.
Citizens are advised not to rely on rumors circulating on social media. If any changes are planned regarding the Rs.10 note, they will be officially announced through the State Bank of Pakistan and national media.
For now, the Rs.10 note remains valid, usable, and accepted across Pakistan.
