Images of Number Plates from Burkina Faso
The first number plate is from the early 1976 series of number plates. The make-up of the number plates in Burkina Faso has changed quite regularly, with the 1985 series showing a completely different composition. The make-up of the number plates was changed again for the current series, with government project vehicles displaying red number plates in a similar format to the 1985 series plates.
A little about Burkina Faso
Burkina is a landlocked country in West Africa. It is bound by Mali to the north and west, Niger to the northeast and east, Benin to the southeast, Togo and Ghana to the south and the Ivory Coast to the southwest. The territory is a vast plateau that slopes southward and contains three voltas which are slow meandering rivers. They are (1.) the Black Volta, (2.) the White Volta and (3.) the Red Volta. The other main river is the Niger and one of the few permanent lakes in West Africa, Lake Bama, is situated on the White Volta. Wooded savannas are located to the south and in the north the plains dry out into a semidesert terrain.
