However, the five countries whose designs violated the firstupdate to the rules (Austria, Belgium, Finland, Germany and Greece) initially were assumed to have to change theirdesign in the near future, which Finland did for 2007Bank of Finland (2006-12-27).

Official Journal of the European Union. 14 January 2009. . The twelve stars of theEuropean Union surrounding the coin designs need to surround all of the coin design elements, including year marks,mint marks and the name of the country. The stars have to appear in the same way as they are aligned on the flag ofthe European Union. (These recommendations are not currently fulfilled by the Dutch and Luxembourgish coins.)The design of euro coins may not be changed except for two specific circumstances: If a coin design is in violationof the recommendations, it may be updated to bring it into line with them. (This applies to Austria, Germany,Greece, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.) If a coin design depicts a head of state, it may be updated: every fifteenyears to bring it into line with the head of state's current appearance; if the head of state abdicates or dies. However,temporary heads of state may not be used as a reason for changing the design; instead a €2 commemorative coin(potentially a second €2 commemorative coin) will be allowed to be issued. The edge lettering of commemorativecoins has to be the same as the one on the regular coins. (These provisions forced Belgium to change its design backto show the original portrait of its monarch, because the 2008 update to follow the recommendations also updated theportrait, which was against the rules. The Belgian coins from 2009 onwards show the original royal portrait of 1999,but otherwise keep the new 2008 coin design as far as the country identification and year mark are concerned. Theseprovisions additionally prohibit further sede vacante sets of coins by the Vatican City, allowing only commemorativecoins for such occasions.) Slovakia, Slovenia and Spain were the states which were in breach of these newguidelines. Spain updated their design from 2010 onwards to meet the new rules, leaving Austria, Germany, Greece,Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Slovakia in breach of them.European Commission (2009-07-16)."European Commission – Economic and Financial Affairs – National Sides [ES]". .
