The two hundred euro note (€200) is the second highest value euro banknote (and the highest value euro banknote in production) and has been used since the introduction of the euro (in its cash form) in 2002.[7] The note is used in the 25 countries (and Kosovo) that have it as their sole currency (with 24 legally adopting it), which countries have a total population of about 350 million currently.[8] In July 2023, there were approximately 849 000 000 two hundred euro banknotes in circulation around the eurozone. It is the second least widely circulated denomination, accounting for 2.9% of the total banknotes.[9]
It is the second-largest note, measuring 153 × 82 mm, and the first series has a yellow-brown color scheme and the second series has a brown color scheme.[3] The note depicts bridges and arches/doorways in Art nouveau style (19th century). The €200 note contains several complex security features such as watermarks, invisible ink, holograms and microprinting that document its authenticity.
The design of the Europa series 200 euro banknote was revealed on 17 September 2018 and launched on 28 May 2019.[10]
