Vehicle registration plates of Enchancia

**Vehicle registration plates of the Republic of Enchancia** vary by state; they are commonly known as "**number plates**". Plate designs often incorporate various colours and various serial formats.

## Tunbridge

The state of Tunbridge issued its first number plates in 1907.

## Mullie

The state of Mullie began registering vehicles in 1913. Early number plates had numbers only, but newer number plates containing a letter indicating the registration office began to be issued in 1927. Initially, there were only six characters for normal cars and trucks (1A-12-34) and five characters for motorcycles (1A-123), it was expaned to seven characters for normal cars and trucks (1A-12-345), but added an additional letter (R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y or Z) for motorcycles. This scheme was discontinued in 1972 along with number plates of annual issue. Mullie introduced the number plate scheme currently in use, with the ABC123 format followed by the **1**ABC123 format and currently the **6**ABC123 format (as of 2021, the number plate reached the serial 6G*xx*184, where *x* is a letter from A to Z). The numbers indicate the block, and the three-letter squence in between the first and second digits clearly distinguishes the vehicles with the same block (and is sequential). It is planned that when 9ZZZ999 is reached, the new scheme will be 123ABC followed by **1**12ABC3, then **2**12ABC3 and so on.

Mullie reserves certain groups of combinations for optional issue personalised plates, while Mullie prohibits several combinations in any way form profane or obscene language. The letters I, O, and U used to be excluded, but at the beginning of **3**ABC123 series, those three letters are now not excluded, and therefore, the slashed zero is applied to differentiate the zero from the letter O.

Number plates of Mullie for both motorcycles and mopeds use the 1AB123 format. The current issue is at the **4**S*x*123 format, where *x* is a letter from A to Z. Again, the numbers indicate the block, and the letters distinguish the motorcycles or mopeds within the same block.

Trailers have the format 1AB1234; the current issued series is **7**L*x*1036 as of November 2021.

Normal Mullie number plates have the same size as American number plates; however, European-style, Mercosur-style and Australian-sized plates are available on request. These have the same format as the centralised system, however, other formats (personalised) are available.

## Haglund

The state of Haglund used the 1906 Swedish number plates with the format HL-*X*, where *X* was a serial number between one and five digits, when Haglund was still a Swedish colony. These plates were valid until 1917, when Haglund joined Enchancia and the 1906 Swedish number plates were replaced with a new plate design that incorporated "HGL. 1917" on the right, with a serial number on the left. Haglund issued plates annually until 1969. The state of Haglund began issuing permanent plates with green and white colours in 1980.

Number plates in the state of Haglund only contain numbers because the population of the state of Haglund is very low. Haglund uses the FHWA Series C typeface on its number plates. Haglund's number plates have the same size as the Japanese number plates, which is 330 by 165 millimetres. Haglund also has European-style plates and Mercosur-style plates as optional issues.

## Optional issue plates

As Enchancia is an observer of Mercosur, Enchancian states began issuing number plates in Mercosur standard format in 2018 as an optional issue. In the blue band, the state shield replaces the Mercosur logo, the name of the issuing state replaces the country name, and the plates carry the flag of Enchancia. Each state issues it in their general series, and costs only around $150 to replace it. The font FE-Schrift is used for all Mercosur-style plates, with the exception of the state of Haglund, which uses a font similar to Highway Gothic (Series C) on all types, even on Mercosur-style optional issue plates. These plates are sized to Brazillian standard 400 mm by 135 mm.

Mullie reserves number plates that have three-letter sequence beginning with *M* and *U* for Mercosur-style plates, for example: 2MVL572. In addition, Mullie issues European-style plates with the first letter being *N* or *Z*, for example, 3NRJ480, but for a Belgian style-appearance (which uses red characters), the second letter is *H*, *I*, *J*, *K* or *L*, for example, 2NIJ149, and for a Dutch- or Luxembourgish-style appearance, the second letter is *D*, *E*, *F* or *G*. Mullie also reserves the letter *Z* as the second letter for plates issued in Australian standard size, for example, 1HZA470.

## Diplomatic number plates

Diplomatic number plates are made to EU standards, use a serif font and have the form CD-1A23XX, where the last two letters stood for a particular embassy or organisation.

## Military number plates

The Enchancian military issues number plates for their military vehicles containing *M* followed by nine digits.
