This note resembles the previous paper ten dollars notes issued in 2002, 2003 and 2005, retaining some of its security features while adopting some new security features unique to polymer notes. This is also the only current denomination ten dollars note issued by the Government of Hong Kong. All other circulating notes in Hong Kong are issued by the 3 major Banks, namely Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank Corporation (HSBC), Chartered Bank (CB) and Bank of China (BoC). However none of the three banks currently issue banknotes smaller than HK$20.

Note: Initial release 37.0 Million pieces in 2007 (dated 01.04.2007). A further of 50.0 Million pieces were released in January 2008 to coup with the Luna New Year demands (07/02/2008).
