Apply for a licence plate
Service description
Do you want a specific combination of letters or numbers for your licence plate, for example
- a name abbreviation,
- the abbreviation of your company,
- a date of birth or marriage or
- Would you like an "old licence 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 licence plate of your choice or reserve one in advance.
If you would like to use the licence plate number of your deregistered vehicle again later in the same administrative district, you can have the identification number reserved 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 licence plate number expires if you move a deregistered vehicle. Please contact the registration authority beforehand.
Attention:
- Subsequent changes to a licence plate combination allocated to a vehicle are only possible for an additional fee.
- A licence plate reserved in another registration district cannot be taken to the new registration district when moving.
Please note:The registration authorities will endeavour to accommodate your requests. However, you have no legal right to a personalised number plate.
Procedure
At most registration authorities, you can reserve or apply for licence plates in person, in writing or by telephone. Many registration authorities also offer an online service on the Internet.
Note: You can find out how long your desired registration number will remain reserved for you by contacting the relevant authority directly.
Who should I contact?
This is the responsibility of the registration authority in your district or city
Prerequisites
You want a specific combination of letters or numbers for your licence plate.
Which documents are required?
If you have reserved a licence plate in advance, you will need the reservation confirmation for the registration procedure.
What fees are incurred?
In addition to the fees for the authorisation, you will incur fees based on administrative expenses for
- Customised number plate: EUR 10,20
- Reservation: EUR 2,60
Note:If you opt for an "old registration number" when there are several distinguishing marks in an administrative district, you only have to pay a personalised registration number fee if you also want a specific alphanumeric combination.
Please note: An additional electronic query is required to determine whether the registration number you have requested can be assigned by the registration authority. The fees will therefore still apply even if your desired registration number is not available.
The additional fee is also charged when reserving or reissuing a licence plate that has already been issued at an earlier date.
Legal basis
What else should I know?
If you want to re-use your licence plate in the same administrative district when you deregister your vehicle, you can have it reserved 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.
