This romanization system supersedes the one that was approved by BGN and PCGN in 1972. An official system was submitted to PCGN by the Maldivian government in 1987 and approved by BGN and PCGN in 1988. The system presented here reflects the 1988 Agreement with minor modifications introduced by the government of the Maldives in 2009
