Applying for a license plate for electric vehicles

Source: BUS Rheinland-Pfalz

You can apply for the E-license plate for vehicles that have an alternative drive system.

These include:

Pure battery electric vehicles,
Vehicles that are charged from the outside via a charging cable, such as plug-in hybrid vehicles, and
hydrogen-powered vehicles, such as fuel cell cars.

You can recognize an E license plate by the letter "E" after the general vehicle license plate. If you want to enter environmental zones, you still need an environmental sticker.

Advantages for vehicles with E-plates on the road are, for example:

free parking,
Use of specially designated parking spaces,
Use of the bus lane.

These benefits differ between municipalities. Please check with your local transport authority to find out what applies to where you live. Please note that there are different types of license plates for different purposes. Of these, the following cannot be combined with the E-plate:

short-term license plates,
export license plates and
red license plates (so-called dealer license plates).

Note: You can save up to EUR 2,000 on the first purchase and registration of an electric vehicle by applying for an environmental bonus.

You can apply for the E-license plate in person at your local registration authority:

Make an appointment with your local licensing authority by phone or, if possible, online.
Bring all required documents as well as the payment amount of EUR 27.00 with you to your appointment.
Your documents will be checked directly on site.
If the test is positive, you will receive your personal E-license plate during the appointment.

Proof that the vehicle is a vehicle within the meaning of the Electric Mobility Act, for example by means of the registration certificate Part I (also known as the vehicle registration document), the certificate of conformity or the data confirmation (abbreviation: COC)
Registration Certificate Part I
If applicable, previous license plates
in the case of used vehicles: general inspection report
Electronic insurance confirmation
