What are the rules on number plates?

Colour
The number plate needs to be the correct colour for the age or registration of the vehicle, with a white background on the front plate and a yellow background on the rear plate.

Formatting
The numbers and letters need to be black, have the correct font and have the correct spacing between them, and there must be no background pattern.

Condition
There must be no damage or anything hiding the registration number.

Clarity
The numbers cannot be altered in any way so that they appear like a different character.

What do I need to get new number plates?

For us to supply you with number plates, you’ll need to provide original documents that verify your identity, address and entitlement to use the registration number. For a full list of acceptable documents for proof of identity and eligibility, please refer to this link to the government website.
