New customers who purchase Maya receive a serial number in one of the following ways:
- in an email from your reseller or from Autodesk
- on a sticker in your Maya package
33-character Maya serial numbers always begin with the letters ‘MC’ or ‘MU’. 11-character Maya serial numbers are three numbers, followed by a dash, followed by eight numbers. For example:
MCF030-B-3322-0933-7182-1111-0000 or 123-45678901
If you did not receive a serial number, contact your local Autodesk sales office or your reseller.
