In the US, torn and badly worn bills are removed from circulation by commercial banks and returned to the Treasurer for destruction.
According to reports the Federal Government prints about 38 million bills a day. Almost 90 percent of the bills printed go to replace bills already in circulation or that have been taken out of circulation.
Older dollar bills are indeed still in circulation. US bills aren't removed from circulation until they wear out.
1,5,10, 20, 50, 100-bigger bills have been taken out of circulation to discourage drug dealers and or money laundering.
No. The US has never withdrawn any bills following a redesign. The only bills that have been officially withdrawn are gold certificates which were recalled when the US went off the gold standard in 1933. All others remain legal tender and can be spent at face value, although that may not make a lot of financial sense if a bill is very old and worth more as a collectible. Banks are required to hold back old bills that are too worn to continue circulating, and any bills with denominations higher than $100. Thus over time older bills are gradually replaced by new ones, but they're not formally withdrawn due to their design.
The U.S. stopped producing $500 bills in 1969, primarily due to a decline in their use and concerns about money laundering and tax evasion. Although they remained legal tender, the Federal Reserve officially discontinued their circulation. In 2014, the U.S. Treasury announced that the remaining $500 bills would be taken out of circulation, further cementing their rarity in everyday transactions.
Yes, banks are required to take obsolete bills and return them to the Treasury. However, taking an old bill to a bank generally isn't a good idea because they're only permitted to exchange them at face value. High-denomination bills, very old bills, and (sometimes) unusual bills can be worth more to a collector or dealer.
The US made 100,000 dollar bills, but none of these were ever in circulation. They were made to be used between Federal Reserve Banks.

The lifespan of paper money can vary depending on its denomination, usage, and condition. On average, a $1 bill lasts around 6 years, while a $100 bill can stay in circulation for up to 15 years. If bills become too worn or damaged, they are taken out of circulation and destroyed.
