How to read an Indian number plate

Every plate follows the same order, so one glance tells you where a vehicle was registered.

1

State code

The first two letters show the state or union territory — UP for Uttar Pradesh, MH for Maharashtra.

2

RTO code

The next two digits identify the transport office that registered the vehicle — this is the code our pages explain.

3

Series

One to three letters that the RTO issues in order once a number series runs out.

4

Unique number

A four-digit number that is unique within that series. Together the plate identifies one vehicle.

Plates in the BH (Bharat) series, like 22 BH 1234 AA, carry no state code — they are meant for owners who move between states.
