Malawi added marks for the sight impaired to their notes in 2014. Unfortunately, these are not all catalogued very well and several duplicates and mistakes have crept in to Numista. Can we please fix the following?
100 Kwacha
P#59 should only contain the dates 2012 and 2013 (see here). Please move the owners of 2014, 2017 and 2020 to P#65.
200 Kwacha
SCWPM missed the addition of the circle bottom left to this note. Please split P#60 into two pages, one for 2012 and 2013 (without mark for the sight impaired), the other for 2016 onwards (with mark for the sight impaired). The two types are shown here.
500 Kwacha
We have the two types but the first has a date line for 2015 which doesn't appear on Bank Note Museum for either type. Can we find out if it really exists and which version it is by asking the owners?

All above cleared.

P# 61 - year 2015 removed for now as no proof of existence. My guess is that it's rather the P#66 issue dated 2014 (with impaired mark) put into circulation in 2015.

Sorry but what happened to the new 1000 Kwacha from 2020 (see the bottom image here)? Someone had added it but withouut images. I added images and a brief description but now it's disappeared and 2020 has been added as a date to the previous type. The fish bottom left of the obverse is the difference.

Please submit your pictures for the 2020 P67 to this page: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/note320785.html. I added a note in the comment for the "double fish".

There has been a bug with banknotes requests in the past couple hours. Fixed now but may take some hours to reflect so I may be able to validate this only tomorrow. The 2020 year on the other page should be gone now.
