Melilla License Plates

Since 2000, plates are in the standard Spanish format with the Euroband on the left and the registration beginning with four numerals followed by three serial letters (no picture available).

Brief Background Ceuta and Melilla Map Spain held two territories in Northern Africa: Western Sahara and Spanish Morocco.

Until 1956, Spanish Morocco (Marruecos Español) consisted of the northern part of the country and used the Spanish registration system beginning with the code ML and up to five numerals.

In 1956, the area reverted to Morocco using the Moroccan system with the exception of Ceuta and Melilla which are still part of Spain today.

Another Spanish enclave, Ifni on the southern Moroccan coast that also used the Spanish system, became part of Morocco in 1969 as part of Agadir.
