Dateless number plates
Dateless number plates are a great way to afford an older vehicle a little dignity in its later years.
Dateless, in this sense, means that the registration does not contain a year identifier, such as a suffix or prefix letter, or the numerical code used in the current vehicle registration format.
Our dateless plates are categorised according to whether they were issued in Northern Ireland or in another region of the UK (there are minor differences in the range of characters used), but all our dateless numbers are available for transfer to any UK vehicle in any part of the country. To see the widest choice, make sure to look at both categories
Dateless registrations can be assigned to any vehicle regardless of its age.
E.g. If you were looking for a registration with 2 letters and 1 number, you would use the '2 x 1' search.
