December 6: Five-digit number plates for vehicles granted

Vehicles with four-digit license numbers will not be forced to be changed into five-digit ones

Under the new Circular, the size and local code of number plates remain the same. In particular, letters and numbers on the number plate are arranged as follows: the first numbers are local code and registration series (letter); the second group of numbers is the registration order including 5 digits from 000.01 to 999.99. When changing or re-granting registration certificates and number plates, there is no need to make a dossier of application for re-grant of the number plates, but it is just required to have the vehicle registration certificate. In case of loosing the registration of three-digit or four-digit number plates, it can be changed into five-digit ones. Vehicles with four-digit license numbers will not be forced to be changed into five-digit ones if there is no demand from vehicle owners. The procedure of vehicle registration will be carried out within 2 days instead of 3 days. The procedure of changing or re-granting number plates will be conducted in a period not exceeding 7 days.
