About this plate
VEHICLES ESPECIALS. Red characters on a WHITE retroreflective ground with blue Pantone 300 legends. Two corrections to the secondary record are carried here: the ground is white and not sky blue, and the serial is FOUR digits and not three. Both come from art. 17.1 verbatim.
About its years
The 1999 Codi art. 204.7 already required special-vehicle plates of a distinct type, "Les matrícules han de ser de les dimensions i del tipus especials diferents de les matrícules normals i segons el model oficial", so 1999 is an upper bound; art. 17 of Decret 456/2022 is the current spec.
Format notes
FOUR numeric characters, 0000 to 9999, verbatim: "A les plaques de matrícula s'hi inscriu un grup de quatre caràcters numèrics que va des del 0000 fins al 9999." Recorded against secondary accounts that give three.
