I'm using cartopy to draw a geomap. This is how I set up graticule rendering:  if graticule: gl = ax.gridlines( draw_labels=True, linewidth=0.8, color='gray', alpha=0.5, linestyle='--', x_inline=False, y_inline=True ) gl.xlocator = mticker.FixedLocator(np.arange(-180, 181, 10)) gl.ylocator = mticker.FixedLocator(np.arange(0, 91, 10)) gl.top_labels = False gl.bottom_labels = True gl.left_labels = True gl.right_labels = True gl.xlabel_style = {'size': 10, 'color': 'gray'} gl.ylabel_style = {'size': 10, 'color': 'gray'}  cartopy doesn't draw longitude labels to the left and to the right of the map. Only bottom and top (if on) labels are drawn:  With ax.set_extent([0, 40, 75, 85], crs=ccrs.PlateCarree()) added:  Latitude labels are okay being inline.
In draw_labels parameter, instead of setting it to True you can pass a dictionary with each 4 side and which coordinates you wish to see: gl = ax.gridlines( draw_labels={"bottom": "x", "left": "x", "right":"x"}, linewidth=0.8, color='gray', alpha=0.5, linestyle='--', x_inline=False, y_inline=True )  You will also need to remove these 4 lines: # gl.top_labels = False # gl.bottom_labels = True # gl.left_labels = True # gl.right_labels = True
