“Red plate, king’s car” – this common saying among Vietnamese long-haul drivers raises questions about its truth. Are you curious about the real meaning of a “red CK license plate”? Let’s unravel this mystery with xetaihanoi.edu.vn!
A red CK license plate is issued to foreign-invested enterprises (FIEs) operating in Vietnam. “CK” stands for “Công ty khác” or “Other Company” – a legal term used to distinguish them from domestic Vietnamese companies.
Red CK license plate on a car
According to traffic expert Robert Peterson (California State University of Transportation, USA), using distinct license plates for FIE vehicles is a common practice worldwide. It facilitates government agencies in monitoring these companies’ operations.
In Vietnamese culture, the color red symbolizes luck, fortune, and prosperity. Therefore, many believe that owning a car with a red CK license plate will bring business advantages. However, according to Feng Shui expert Nguyen Van An (Ho Chi Minh City), a license plate’s meaning also depends on other factors like the number sequence and the car’s manufacturing year.
In reality, red CK license plates do not confer any special privileges. All vehicles must abide by the same traffic laws. The notion of “red plate, king’s car” is a baseless rumor.
To own a car with a red CK license plate, you must establish a foreign-invested enterprise in Vietnam and meet all legal requirements.
1. Do vehicles with red CK license plates receive priority in traffic?
No. All vehicles are equal under the law.
2. Are red CK license plates more prestigious than regular ones?
A license plate’s value lies not in its color but in its number sequence and individual preferences.
3. Is buying or selling a car with a red CK license plate more complicated than one with a white plate?
The process is somewhat more complex due to the transfer of ownership involving an FIE.
“Red CK license plates” do not hold any special spiritual meaning or power, contrary to popular belief. They are simply license plates designated for FIE vehicles for regulatory purposes.
