Vehicle registration plates of Montenegro

Present Montenegrin car plates have black characters on a rectangular white background, with blue strip on the left. The plates follow the 520 mm x 110 mm format, except for motorcycles. The present licence plates format was introduced on 6 June 2008, and replaced the old format (format of Yugoslav licence plates) gradually over the following year. The new format is on par with common EU format.

Overview

The plate is in following layout: to the left, a blue-colored field contains Montenegro's international automobile code (MNE); continuing in white background, the two-letter code of the municipality where the vehicle was registered in, then the coat-of-arms of Montenegro following by the registration code, which generally consists of two letters followed by three numbers. However, with an additional payment, it is possible to obtain the customized plates with any letter-number combination.

Police vehicles have blue plates, while military vehicles have green plates. The diplomatic corps cars have separate format licence plates, with no municipality code, coat of arms, and with yellow code on white background.

Unlike the older licence plates, which were inherited from SFRY-era, and slightly changed in 1992, the new licence plates have separate aera code for every municipality in Montenegro. The municipalities that were previously omitted are Andrijevica, Danilovgrad, Kolašin, Mojkovac, Plav, Plužine, Rožaje, Šavnik, Tivat and Žabljak.
