Apply for seasonal license plates for vehicles
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzYou can apply to the registration authority for a seasonal license plate for a certain period each year. This is the period of use during which you can drive your vehicle on public roads each year. A seasonal license plate serves to identify the owner and the period of use.
You can use this option if you own a motorcycle, a convertible or a motorhome, for example.
When you register your vehicle, you specify the operating period during which you wish to use the vehicle each year. You must take out car insurance corresponding to the operating period in advance. The operating period can be between 2 and 11 full months per year.
Outside the operating period, you may not drive the vehicle on public roads and must park it away from public roads and places, for example in a private parking space. The operating period is shown on the right-hand side of the license plate as a fractional number. "05/11", for example, means that you may use the vehicle from May to November.
You apply for registration in person or online using the internet-based vehicle registration i-Kfz.
You must have the plates embossed yourself.
For vehicles that are not operated for the entire year, it is possible to obtain a seasonal license plate.
The operating period is determined at the owner's request and is measured in full months. It must be at least two months and may not exceed eleven months.
The vehicles may not be used on public roads outside the operating period and may not be parked in public traffic areas.
Vintage car license plates and green license plates can also be issued as seasonal license plates.
Please note:
If the seasonal period is to be changed, the insurance confirmation (eVB number) and new license plates are required.
When applying in person:
If you register your vehicle with your competent registration authority for a specific period, you will immediately be allocated a license plate combination stating the seasonal period.
With this allocation:
- have the license plates produced
- have the stickers affixed to the license plates by the registration authority
- attach the license plates firmly to the vehicle in the designated places
When applying online:
You can apply for a seasonal license plate via the i-Kfz portal. To do this, you need to enter an electronic insurance number (eVB) with the desired operating period.
The allocation of a seasonal license plate to your vehicle is
- entered directly in the central vehicle register
- reported to the insurance company
- sent to you as a notification by e-mail or download
Then
- have the license plates embossed
- attach the registration authority stickers to the license plates
- attach them to the vehicle in the designated places
Registration authorities of the district administrations or the municipal administrations of the independent and large cities belonging to the district.
- You have taken out motor vehicle liability insurance.
- You have a private parking facility for your vehicle outside the operating period.
Further information, including which documents are required for approval, can be found on the website of the responsible approval authority.
The fees are charged in accordance with the scale of fees for road traffic measures.
The amount of the fees may vary depending on the case constellation. Specific information on this can be obtained from the relevant local licensing authority.
