The current five-hryvnia note is dominantly blue in colour. The front features a portrait of Ukraine's hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky. The reverse side shows a church in his birthplace village of Subotiv. An updated version of the note began circulation on 14 June 2004, with new security features.

The National Bank of Ukraine is intended to introduce in 2019 a new five-hryvnia coin who will gradually replace the five-hryvnia note.[1]
