Vehicle registration plates in Singapore are administered and issued by the Land Transport Authority. [1] All vehicles in Singapore are required to display front and back plates bearing its registration number. Purchasers of vehicles have the option to bid for a vehicle registration number, retain a registration number from an existing vehicle or get a vehicle registration number automatically assigned on the day of the vehicle’s registration. [1]

Contents

Vehicle registration numbers can be retained on new or old vehicles owned by the same person, with a validity of 1 year or with extensions of 6 months thereafter. Vehicle owners are also able to replace and bid for a new registration number for existing vehicles with proper documentations and fees paid for bidding or number retention. [2]

In general, every motor vehicle in Singapore requires a vehicle registration number to be displayed at the front center (in almost all cases or otherwise set by car manufacturer due to bumper constraints) and rear of the vehicle. [1] Two colour schemes are in use: white font on black scheme that is standard on cars and motorcycles from dealerships, or the Euro white/yellow (on front and rear) scheme. [3]

These plates are either represented in rectangular single line or squarish two line format. The number plate has to be made of a reflective plastic with flat characters or metal based with bolded or embossed characters which are black (for Euro white-yellow), while white or silver are used (for black based). [3]

Although no standardised typeface is used, all typefaces are based on the Charles Wright number plate typeface that was and is still used in the UK. Rarely, the Arial Bold or FE-Schrift font used in Germany can be seen – though the use of these fonts is prohibited by the Land Transport Authority (LTA). [3]

For motorists who would be attaching a bicycle rack of which the vehicle licence plate would be blocked at the rear of a vehicle, or any other fittings that obstructs the view of the number plate, motorists are required to hang an additional licence plate prominently at the rear of the vehicle. [4]

A typical vehicle registration number comes in the format Sxx #### y:

Types of numbers

Private car licence plate numbers began in the early 1900s when Singapore was one of the four Straits Settlements, with a single prefix S for denoting Singapore, then adding a suffix letter S 'B' to S 'Y' for cars, but skipping a few like S 'A' (reserved for motorcycles), S 'H' (reserved for taxis), S 'D' (reserved for municipal vehicles), and S 'G' for goods vehicles large and small. There was no checksum letter, for example, S. When the checksum letter was implemented, these plate numbers were given checksum letters as well, for example SG5999 became SG5999Z.

When 'S' was exhausted at SY, in January 1972, private cars started with E and Land Transport Authority begin to create separate vehicle categories according type of vehicles which previously all vehicles in Singapore must bear prefix S due to previous standardization with Peninsular Malaysia according to geographical location (A is for Perak, B is for Selangor, S is for Singapore/Sabah), motorbikes with A and goods vehicles under 3 tonnes with Y. E was followed by EA, EB with the letters EC in 1973 up to EZ. E was chosen then as letters A-D were already in used by other states in Malaysia. [5]

From 1984, the "S" series of number plates was launched again after EZ, but now with two serial suffix letters, starting from SBA, although with several prefixes being skipped as they are reserved, such as SBS and SMB, as they were used for buses that belong to public transport operators. However under the Bus Contracting Model which was later implemented, bus operators under Bus Contracting Model utilise the SG prefix for all public buses.

Since August 2017, the Land Transport Authority announced that electric bicycle (also known as Power-Assisted Bicycle) owners would have to register their personal mobility vehicles between 14 August and 31 January 2018 and install number plates, with sealing and registration to be done by the individual. Since then, if the unregistered PAB already has an LTA orange seal, a registration is only needed. Alternatively, if a registered PAB is bought from a retailer, only a transfer the registration to the individual's name is needed. Registration for PAB with blue seal has ceased as of 2018. [6] [7]

Since January 2019, the Land Transport Authority announced that electric scooter owners would have to register their personal mobility vehicles between 2 January and 30 July 2019. A registered e-scooter must have a LTA Registration Mark and an Identification Mark (which bears the unique registration number assigned to the e-scooter) affixed. However, non-UL2272 certified vehicles were deregistered automatically on 1 July 2020. [8]

Once issued to company-registered vehicles.

Expenses incurred in the use of these cars were tax-deductible, though the road tax payable was twice that of a private car. [14] After a tax rationalisation in 1998 which did away with these benefits, company cars have been issued with standard number plates ever since. [15] The Q-prefix was used both standalone (e.g. QB 1 K) and as a prefix for, E, B and C-series plates (e.g. QEZ 6257 R, QBX 2223 K, QCK 6861 Z) [16]

Special prefixes were used for specific events, such as:

They are neither used after the events nor sold for to the public, but unofficial series for cosmetic purposes.

Civil Mobilisation Exercise or Vehicle Recalls have a large A3/A2 sticker stuck at the rear and front of the vehicle denoted that the vehicle is being mobilised or deployed for civil emergency exercises. These usually happen during weekends.

Checksum

The checksum letter is calculated by converting the letters into numbers, i.e., where A=1 and Z=26, potentially giving seven individual numbers from each registration plate. However, only two letters of the prefix are used in the checksum. For a three-letter prefix, only the last two letters are used; for a two-letter prefix, both letters are used; for a single letter prefix, the single letter corresponds to the second position, with the first position as 0. For numerals less than four digits, additional zeroes are added in front as placeholders, for example "1" is "0001". SBS 9889 would therefore give 2, 19, 9, 8, 8 and 9 (note that "S" is discarded); E 12 would give 0, 5, 0, 0, 1 and 2. SG 2017 would be given as 19, 7, 2, 0, 1, 7.

Each individual number is then multiplied by 6 fixed numbers (9, 4, 5, 4, 3, 2). These are added up, then divided by 19. The remainder corresponds to one of the 19 letters used (A, Z, Y, X, U, T, S, R, P, M, L, K, J, H, G, E, D, C, B), with "A" corresponding to a remainder of 0, "Z" corresponding to 1, "Y" corresponding to 2 and so on. In the case of SBS 9889, the final letter is a "U"; for E 23, the final letter should be a H. SG 2017 back letter should be a C. The letters F, I, N, O, Q, V and W are not used as checksum letters.

Checksum suffix letters are not applied to special government vehicles and event vehicles.

Prefix exceptions

LTA has introduced policies where certain series of licence plate prefixes are deliberately skipped for various reasons. The policies include:

PlateReasons
ASSThis plate is prohibited because it constitutes to the word 'ass'.
CCBThis plate is prohibited because of Hokkien profanity ("smelly cunt"). However, in 1996, CB plate still has, and was discontinued to avoid forming vulgarities ("cunt").
CIDThis plate is prohibited because it leads to Criminal Investigation Department.
FA_After the exhaustion of FZ plates, these plates were skipped and the next lettering FBA starts. This is done to avoid constituting the word 'fuck' (FAK).
FCKThis plate is prohibited because it constitutes to the word 'fuck'. However, FK plate still remains.
FU_Several plates are prohibited because it constitutes to the word 'fuck'. However, FK plate still remains.
GA_After the exhaustion of GZ plates, these plates were skipped and the next lettering GBA starts. Several plates are prohibited because it forms objectionable word combinations such as "GAY" (resembles spelling of 'gay').
KNNThis plate is prohibited because of Hokkien profanity ("fuck").
PAPThis plate is prohibited because it leads to the term People's Action Party.
PAYIt forms a meaningful word (pay).
SA_The SA sequence was never issued (the S-sequence in 1984 started with SBA), because the West Coast Division of Sabah state in Malaysia has been using the SA sequence.
SE_Several plates are prohibited because it forms objectionable word combinations such as "SEE" (resembles spelling of 'see'), "SEL" (resembles spelling of the word 'sell'), "SEX" (resembles spelling of 'sex'), "SEY" (resembles spelling of 'say'). When the SDZ series was exhausted, the next plates issued was the SFA. [20]
SHESHE also forms a meaningful word (she), so it's skipped despite the middle letter being a consonant.
SHYIt forms a meaningful word (Shy). [21]
SI_Several plates are prohibited because it forms objectionable word combinations such as "SIA" (resembles Singapore Airlines), "SIN" (resembles abbreviation of Singapore as well as 'sin'). When the SGZ series was exhausted, the next plates issued was the SJA since SH is used for taxis.
SKYIt forms a meaningful word (sky). [21]
SLYIt forms a meaningful word (Sly).
SO*LTA announced that it had adopted the policy of not issuing series with vowels in the middle of the three-letter prefixes. When the SNZ plates was exhausted, the next plates issued was the SPB.
SPAIt forms a meaningful word (Spa).
SPYIt forms a meaningful word (Spy).
SU_Several plates are prohibited because it forms objectionable word combinations such as "SUX" (resembles spelling of 'sucks'). In the future, once the STZ series is exhausted, the next plates issued was the SVA.
WA_After the exhaustion of WZ plates, these plates were skipped and the next lettering WBA starts. Several plates are prohibited because it forms a meaningful and objectionable words such as "WAR" (war), "WAS" (Was) and "WAY" (Way).

Personalised registrations

To date, vanity plates or such a scheme has not been introduced, as it would understandably bear similarities with neighbouring Malaysian plates. Also, it would further encourage more private vehicles to be bought and registered with vanity plates as personal choice, which contradicts the efforts by the state in discouraging the usage of private vehicles. With the limitation in having vanity plates, some owners have opted to have personalised text on their number plate frames instead. [22]

For now, there is a thriving trade in the sales of number plates that have single, double or significant digits (i.e., lucky numbers) or registration numbers from the older series.

[22] Bids for vehicle registration numbers starts at S$1,000, with the number awarded to the highest bidder. [22] The highest amount recorded for a bid was in 2016, where the registration number of 'S32H' was sold for S$335,000. [23]

Other schemes & miscellaneous

Off-peak vehicles

An offpeak white on red number plate

Vehicles registered as "Off-peak Vehicles", colloquially known as "weekend cars" or red plate, pay a cheaper annual road tax compared to ordinary private cars, and rebates towards the registration of Certificate of Entitlement (COE) and Additional Registration Fee (ARF) on a new vehicle purchase. [24] Off-peak vehicles display number plates with white characters on a red background and are held with a tamper seal at the corner, bolted onto the bumper beam frame or the trunk itself. They are also not to be confused with the preserved vehicle licence plate format for de-registered vehicles.

These vehicles are only allowed to run on the roads in Singapore after peak hours (7:00 pm – 7:00 am) on weekdays, and the whole day on Saturday (Revised OPC scheme allows on whole Saturday, non-revised old OPC scheme vehicles must adhered to the old scheme restriction which is 7:00 am – 3:00 pm on Saturday), Sunday and public holidays. The restrictions do not apply if the vehicle is not in Singapore and is in Malaysia during restricted hours.

For owners of off-peak vehicles who wish to drive on weekdays during restricted hours, they are required to buy an e-licence for $20 either online or through major post offices. Car owners have up to 24 hours on the following day to purchase the e-licence. First-time offenders may be fined up to $5,000 for failing to display a valid day coupon or using an invalid day coupon, and up to $10,000 for using an altered day coupon when their vehicles are used during the restricted hours.

Off-peak vehicles pay a relatively lower road tax (a discount of up to $500) as compared to other private vehicles, and are also given rebate of $17,000 which can be offset against the COE and ARF. Once seen as a alterative for motorists to use on selected days, a majority of people in Singapore do not use off-peak vehicles in today’s trends due to its restrictions on day usage.

Similarly, due to rising vehicle ownership costs as an alternative, they are not beneficial financially beyond COE expiry and COE renewal and for cars above 1600cc. Off-peak vehicles are popular among cars below 1600cc due to lower road tax rebates. [25]

Vintage and Classic vehicles

A Classic vehicle numberplate

Vehicles registered under the Classic Vehicle Scheme, Vintage (Restricted) Vehicle Scheme, and the Revised Vintage Vehicle Scheme bear the Vintage and Classic vehicle registration plate, which has an ordinary registration number but with white lettering on a half-red, half-yellow background, with a seal affixed on the number plate by an authorised inspection centre.

According to Land Transport Authority (LTA) guidelines, classic vehicles are required to be of at least 35 years of age, while vintage vehicles must be manufactured in 1939 or earlier. Under the Classic Vehicle Scheme and the Revised Vintage Vehicle Scheme, the maximum allowable road usage for these vehicles is limited to 45 days per year, while vehicles registered under the Vintage (Restricted) Vehicle Scheme are limited to 28 days of annual road usage. [26] [27] Owners of these vehicles are required to display a valid Day License every time they use their vehicle.

These vehicles enjoy rebates on road tax and the registration of Certificate of Entitlement (COE). However, they cannot be converted to other vehicle registration schemes and are required to pay ERP.

A "Restricted Use" vehicle displays a registration plate with white letters on a diagonally bisected background, the upper half of which is red and the lower half emerald green. The two lead characters of the plate are "RU".

"Hazardous Cargo" plates were introduced in 2005, using normal commercial vehicle registrations, often in the 'Y' code, but with, unusually, black figures on a reflective orange background. These trucks are permitted to carry fuel, gas canisters and chemicals (flammables), and are not permitted to enter both tunnels and city areas unless route arrangements have been made in advance with the fire services. Malaysian lorries are also required to have a separate HAZMAT orange licence plate affixed to both the trailer and wagon (tow head). Such vehicles are subject to the same rules as Singapore-registered hazardous cargo vehicles.

"Research and Development" vehicles display a half-yellow, half-blue plate with the prefix "RD".

Motor dealers and traders use white on blue plates using the suffix "S", preceded by up to four numerals for their test drive vehicles.

Driving instructors teaching students in Singapore must display an "L" ("learner") plate beside their vehicle registration plates on both the front and back of the vehicle.
