Road signs in Mongolia

Road signs in Mongolia are similar to the Soviet (post-Soviet states), British, and other European road sign systems. They ensure that transport vehicles move safely and in an orderly manner, and inform the participants of traffic built-in graphic icons. These icons are regulated in MNS 4597:2014 and comply to the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic and Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals.[1][2][3] Despite the fact that Mongolia was never part of the Soviet Union, the MNS 4597:2014 standard for road signs has many similarities with its post-Soviet counterparts based on ГОСТ 10807-78 and ГОСТ Р 52290-2004.[4][5][6][7]

The Arial Bold typeface is used on road signs in Mongolia. Unlike most post-Soviet states, Mongolia does not use the typeface based on the ГОСТ 10807-78 Soviet standard. The Arial Bold typeface is also often used on road signs in Russia and post-Soviet states since it is a computer font and is included with all PCs running Microsoft Windows and Apple's macOS.
