Sofarsogood 1st Gear March 12, 2004 Share March 12, 2004 In Singapore there are only 2 standards. Either u have: 1) For front, black on yellow background, and for rear, black on white background, OR 2) For both front and rear, white/silver on black background Correct me if i'm wrong. I think its mentioned in LTA's website. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orge Clutched March 12, 2004 Share March 12, 2004 From wat i know, there are several kind of number plates... 1) Front white, back yellow are original number issue and installed by LTA, think they are FOC when it comes with the car 2) All black and white numbering are number plates installed by your car dealer, think cost around $20, normally it is absorb by the dealer or inclusive 3) Red plates are for Off peak and weekend cars 4) Half blue and half yellow plates with the beginning letter of "RU" is by the honda car sharing programming. 5) there is another 2 color plate in singapore. can't remember the combination. think it should be either half red and half yellow or half red and half blue. it also has the lettering begining with "RU" on it. those are meant for offshore cars. cars that are in pulau ubin or sentosa kind. meaning they cannot be driven on singapore main island road. Driving centre also have these kind of plates. Those cars with these plates are cars that are purely used for inside circuit training purpose. Not meant for public road training. 6) The rest are government related plates. For example our president. His car has not number plate. Only the Istana logo printed on a red background. The rest of the number plates are differentiate by the letterings and not color. Namely: *****MID - Military vehicle *****MID with Stars - Military vehicle for General status officer QX****X - Police vehicle QY****X - Stat board vehicle S** - High ranking minster vehicle SJ** - Singapore Judges vehicle S****CD - embassy vehicle SZA****X - rental vehicle SHA****X, SHB****X - Taxi Think there should be more. Can't recall all. There is a unique one that i had seem before is NAVY*. It is the US Navy vehicle in singapore. Saw a few that even comes with left hand drive version.

Liang Neutral Newbie March 13, 2004 Share March 13, 2004 saw one recently, a few months ago. Was a HUGE SUV, must be the typical american sized car. It took up nearly 1 entire lane, from marking to marking and think the driver on same eye level as SBS bus! Nice shiny black paintwork with NAVY* or USN* plates.

Madarmour Neutral Newbie March 13, 2004 Share March 13, 2004 M'sia car plate better, some examples are"SUKOM XXXX" "WIRA XXXX" Think the letter cab choose one if paid a bit lor Recently HK also can, saw on newspaper but must be 8 character long like "IAMHOT" also can The special Malaysian plates are commemorative issues. When Proton first came out, they have PROTON 1-9999. The same goes for WIRA. SUKOM, on the other hand, was a commemorative issue for the last Commonwealth Games. SUKOM = Sukan Komonwel.

Goodman 1st Gear February 19, 2008 Share February 19, 2008 Just saw from 6:30 news that LTA has ammounced that Euro Car plate is illegal in Singapore. Any car that fitted with one will get fine. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
