Senegal license plates

Format, region codes and a plate generator for Senegal.

Custom text: real plates never carry this combination.

This image is not a license plate: it must not be fitted to a vehicle and does not mean the combination is available.

How to read the plate

Country code
SN is the international code of the country of registration.
Region code
In a separate field of the plate.
Series and number
Letters and digits — the registration itself.

The new Senegalese plate reads AA-012-BC: two letters, three digits and two more letters, with dots between the groups. The number stays with the vehicle for life. A separate field on the right holds the two-letter region code — DK for Dakar, TH for Thiès and so on, 14 codes matching ISO 3166-2 — with the two-digit number of the department within the region below it. A blue band on the left carries the flag and SN.

History

The new plates were introduced in 2019 and have been issued on a mass scale since 2021. From 1989 to 2019 plates were blue with white or silver characters in the format DK-1234-A, with the same region code at the start of the number. The Kaffrine, Kédougou and Sédhiou regions were created in 2008.
