The €50 banknotes no longer valid in Spain from April onwards

The Bank of Spain has announced that certain €50 banknotes will no longer be accepted as legal tender in the country starting in April due to susceptibility to counterfeiting and damage by anti-theft systems. Specifically, notes with visible signs of tampering, stains of purple or blue ink, sticky substances, or strange marks will be phased out. The Bank advises people to be cautious when handling money and to take such banknotes to a branch for potential refunds if believed to be stolen.
