Every plate format, from the law itself
The VehiclesDB registration-mark dataset: 1381 plate series across 47 jurisdictions โ formats, validation patterns, colours and eras, every claim cited to the issuing authority's own documents (RDW, BOE, FzV, Florida statutes).
Looking for the physical size? See license plate dimensions for every jurisdiction, in millimetres and inches.

Typed any way you like โ punctuation is forgiven, the alphabet isn't. We'll tell you which series, in which jurisdiction, actually issues it.
Reading the years: 2000 โ today means the series is still issued; ~1999 means the format is documented from that year and is likely older.
