Specifically, "The letters and figures on the identification mark must be indelibly inscribed in white upon a black surface and no letter or figure shall be capable of being detached from such surface. Additionally, all letters and figures must be three and a half inches high; every part of each letter and figure must be five-eighth of an inch broad and the total width of the space taken by every letter or figure must be two and a half inches."

The series is indicated by the following one or two letters and it indicates the time at which the vehicle was registered. Some letters may be left out to avoid confusion with others e.g. I and Q are skipped. The very first series consisted of a single letter. The second series consisted of two letters (between 1933 and 1970) from PA 1 to PZ 9999. The current series uses three letters where the second letter is repeated. The first registered number in this series would therefore be PAA 1, and after PAA 9999, PBB 1 and so on.
The SS series was issued in 2013, TT in 2014, VV in 2015. [4] WW began in early 2017, [5] XX in 2018 [6] In 2019, the Guyana Revenue Authority considered issuing custom plates in anticipation of completion of the PZZ series. [7]
Upon completion of the PZZ series, it was announced that the next series will be PAB 1 to 9999, then PAC 1 to 9999, PAD 1 to 9999 and so on. It is presumed that on completion of the PAZ series, the next series will be PBA, with PBB and all other repeating letter combinations being skipped since they are already in use. This is similar to the system currently in use in Trinidad and Tobago.

The registration identifier is a numeric or alphanumeric ID that uniquely identifies the vehicle or vehicle owner within the issuing region's vehicle register. In some countries, the identifier is unique within the entire country, while in others it is unique within a state or province. Whether the identifier is associated with a vehicle or a person also varies by issuing agency. There are also electronic license plates.
