The Soviet Union was the first country in the world to honour Burns with a commemorative stamp, marking the 160th anniversary of his death in 1956.

The Royal Mail has issued postage stamps commemorating Burns three times.
In 1966, two stamps were issued, priced fourpence and one shilling and threepence, both carrying Burns's portrait.
In 1996, an issue commemorating the bicentenary of his death comprised four stamps, priced 19p, 25p, 41p and 60p and including quotes from Burns's poems.
On 22 January 2009, two stamps were issued by the Royal Mail to commemorate the 250th anniversary of Burns's birth.

Burns was pictured on the Clydesdale Bank £5 note from 1971 to 2009.
On the reverse of the note was a vignette of a field mouse and a wild rose in reference to Burns's poem "To a Mouse".
The Clydesdale Bank's notes were redesigned in 2009 and, since then, he has been pictured on the front of their £10 note.
In September 2007, the Bank of Scotland redesigned their banknotes to feature famous Scottish bridges.
The reverse side of new £5 features Brig o' Doon, famous from Burns's poem "Tam o' Shanter", and pictures the statue of Burns at that site.

In 1996, the Isle of Man issued a four-coin set of Crown (5/-) pieces on the themes of "Auld Lang Syne", Edinburgh Castle, Revenue Cutter, and Writing Poems.
Tristan da Cunha produced a gold £5 Bicentenary Coin.

In 2009 the Royal Mint issued a commemorative two pound coin featuring a quote from "Auld Lang Syne".
