Italian Occupation of Montenegro Postage Stamps

Montenegro · 1941 ·

This series consists of contemporary Yugoslavian stamps overprinted for use during the Italian occupation of Montenegro in World War II. The overprints typically read "Crna Gora" in Cyrillic script and include the Italian fascist symbol, the fasces. The base stamps feature various Yugoslavian themes, including portraits and landscapes.

Following the Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941, Montenegro was occupied by Italy and established as a protectorate. These overprinted stamps were issued for postal use within the occupied territory.
