The license plate number can be designed by yourself, except for the first two in accordance with national regulations, others can be freely selected.
At present, the civil license plate is Type 92, which has been used nationwide since July 1994.
The first number of the license plate is Chinese characters: it represents the provincial administrative region where the vehicle registered permanent residence is located, and is the abbreviation of each province, municipality directly under the central government and autonomous region. For example, Beijing is Beijing, Shanghai is Shanghai, Hunan is Hunan, Chongqing is Chongqing, and Shandong is Shandong.
The second place of the license plate is English letters: it represents the prefecture-level administrative region where the vehicle account is located, and it is the letter code of each (prefecture-level city, region, autonomous prefecture and league). Generally, the provincial vehicle management office ranks according to the situation of the local administrative regions: (the letter "A" is the code of the central city of the provincial capital, capital or municipality directly under the central government, and the following letters are ranked in no particular order);
In addition, I and O are skipped when compiling English alphabet codes of prefecture-level administrative regions, and O is often used as police cars or government agencies (see "Police car license plate" in this entry). (the letter o in the army and the armed police has nothing to do with this. Please refer to "Military License Plate" and "Armed Police License Plate" in this entry).
