Collection: St Maarten

Sint Maarten, like most of the Dutch Caribbean islands, renewed their plates every 6 months.  Therefore, you will see plates expiring the same year with 2 different color stickers.  In later years, they went to the metal tab system that Aruba pioneered.  The stickers and plate tabs will always have numbers matching the plates.

It is not uncommon to find homemade replacement plates on St Maarten, and there are a few of them available on this page.

The vast majority of these St Maarten plates are from the legendary collection of the late Bob Bittner, who obtained them personally over the course of many trips to the Caribbean.
