2019 Holiday Currency Special Ordering Information
August 21, 2019
For the 2019 holiday season, the Federal Reserve Banks will process your holiday currency special requests during these two separate ordering periods:
- Friday, October 25 through Thursday, October 31
- Friday, December 6 through Thursday, December 12
All orders placed during the special ordering periods must be picked up from the Federal Reserve’s docks by the Friday following the last order day of each period: Friday, November 1 and Friday, December, 13. You must ensure your institution has made appropriate transit accommodations, as no orders will be held over to the following week.
Holiday Currency Order Process
You may place an order for fit or new currency via the FedLine Web® Solution during the special ordering periods. If you desire both fit and new currency, you will need to place two separate orders — one for fit and one for new. All orders will be filled with your requested currency type, unless the supply has been temporarily exhausted.
Holiday Currency Ordering Requirements
During the holiday currency special ordering periods, standard cash ordering requirements will remain in place. If your institution places two orders for any of your 10 non-priced designated endpoints, one for fit and one for new currency, the Uniform Cash Access Policy (UCAP) fee will be waived and reversed for the second order. Any additional orders placed beyond the second order, or for endpoints that do not meet the requirements for free access, will still be subject to the UCAP fee.
If your institution deposits fit currency in a denomination covered by the Recirculation Policy and orders new currency in the same denomination within the same Federal Reserve Bank zone or sub-zone from October 25 through October 31, and from December 6 through December 12, any resulting cross-shipping fees will be waived for those weeks.
