License plates: Reserve the license plate of your choice
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzDo you want a specific combination of letters or numbers for your license plate, for example
- an abbreviation of the name,
- the abbreviation of your company,
- a date of birth or marriage, or
- Would you like an "old license plate" for your vehicle that is available again in your district together with a specific identification number?
For a fee, you can apply for a license plate of your choice or have it reserved in advance.
If you would like to use the desired license plate of your deregistered vehicle again later in the same administrative district, you can reserve the identification number for a certain period of time for a fee and apply again in connection with the re-registration or registration of another vehicle. A reservation of the desired license plate expires if you move a deregistered vehicle. Contact the registration authority beforehand.
Attention:
- The subsequent change of a license plate combination assigned to a vehicle is only possible for an additional fee.
- A desired license plate reserved in another registration district cannot be taken to the new registration district when moving.
Hint: The regulatory authorities will try to comply with your wishes. However, you have no legal claim to a desired license plate.
At most registration authorities, you can reserve or apply for desired license plates in person, in writing or by telephone. Many regulatory authorities also offer an online service on the Internet.
Note: You can find out how long your desired license plate will remain reserved for you directly from the responsible office.
the registration authority in whose district you have your main residence, place of business or branch
The licensing authority is in Rhineland-Palatinate,
- for an urban district: the city administration
- for a county: the county administration
You want a specific combination of letters or numbers for your license plate.
If you have reserved a desired license plate in advance, you will need the reservation confirmation for the admission procedure.
In addition to the fees for admission, you will incur fees according to the administrative burden for
- Desired license plate: EUR 10.20
- Reservations: EUR 2.60
Hint: If you opt for an "old license plate" for several distinctive signs in an administrative district, you will only have to pay a desired license plate fee if you also want a certain alpha-numeric combination to do so.
Attention: Whether the identification number you want can be assigned by the registration authority requires an additional electronic query. The fees are therefore also incurred if your desired license plate is not available.
The additional fee will also be charged if a license plate that has already been assigned at an earlier date is reserved or reassigned.
If, when you deregister your vehicle, you would like to use your license plate again later in the same administrative district, you can reserve it for a certain period of time at most registration authorities for a fee and also apply for it again in connection with the registration of another vehicle.
