What is classed as a legal UK number plate?

In the UK registration there are very stringent rules concerning what is classed as legal when it comes to number plates. Here, we will certainly guide you through the DVLA's (previously known as DVLC) rules for legal number plates, consisting of some common faults.

Legally displaying your number plates.

Legally, the number plates attached to your car are required to be made by a manufacturer that is registered on the DVLA's Register of Number Plate Suppliers (RNPS).

The rules concerning the creation of number plates are very particular:

Number plates must fit with the British Standard
Use the typical typeface
Be of particular size
Be printed using the correct colouring

There are alternatives for motorcycles, tricycles as well as traditional (black and white/ silver) number plates.

All reputable number plate manufacturers will certainly be aware as well as stick to the DVLA's regulations. This is very important as vehicle registration marks have to be displayed in accordance with The Road Vehicles Regulations 2001.
