“A license plate is like a fingerprint for a vehicle.” Every motorcycle on the road carries its own unique “mark.” Have you ever wondered what the numbers and letters on a Vietnamese motorcycle license plate signify? Let’s delve into the intriguing secrets behind these familiar symbols with Xe Tai Ha Noi.

Understanding Vietnamese Motorcycle License Plate Codes

Overview of Motorcycle License Plates

A motorcycle license plate is a plate issued by a competent authority, attached to each motorcycle for registration and management purposes. It contains information about the locality of registration and the vehicle’s registration number.

Vietnamese motorcycle license plate classifications

License Plate Classification by Color

Currently, Vietnamese motorcycle license plates are divided into four main categories based on color:

• White background with black characters and numbers: Designated for privately owned motorcycles registered in districts and counties. For example, if Mr. Minh buys a new motorcycle in Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi, he will receive a white license plate with black characters and numbers, starting with the code for Hoan Kiem District.
• Yellow background with black characters and numbers: Designated for motorcycles owned by organizations and foreign-invested enterprises. For instance, if company ABC in Thang Long Industrial Park, Hanoi, purchases a motorcycle for its employees, the vehicle will be issued a yellow license plate with black characters and numbers.
• Blue background with white characters and numbers: Reserved for motorcycles belonging to government agencies. For example, a motorcycle belonging to the People’s Committee of Trang Tien Ward, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi, will have a blue license plate with white characters and numbers.
• Red background with white characters and numbers: Designated for motorcycles belonging to the military.

License Plate Classification by Prefix

Each province and city in Vietnam is assigned a specific number range, reflected in the prefix of the license plate. For example, motorcycles registered in Hanoi have prefixes ranging from 29 to 33, while motorcycles registered in Ho Chi Minh City have the prefix 59.

Meaning of the Numbers on the License Plate

The sequence of numbers following the prefix on the motorcycle license plate is the vehicle’s unique registration number. This number is unique and does not duplicate any other vehicle nationwide.
