## About this plate

THE FIVE-DIGIT SERIES, Andorra's ordinary plate before the lettered stage. Note the asymmetry in the evidence: the SERIAL change between the two series is undated, while the AND MARK change that accompanied it is dated by the 2011 Decret.

## About its years

BOTH ENDS ARE HONEST APPROXIMATIONS AND THE FILE SAYS SO. START: 1999 is an UPPER BOUND, not an origin. The Llei del Codi de la circulació of 10 June 1999 is the earliest instrument reached that carries a plate catalogue at all (art. 147: "Aquest Codi inclou el catàleg de plaques de matrícula vigents a Andorra"), and the five-digit grammar is confirmed from the 2011 Decret describing it as the base stage. The format certainly predates 1999, BOPA's archive begins in 1989 and pre-1989 Andorran law is not digitised, so how far back it runs is unknowable from here. The five-digit stage closed when 99999 exhausted, which is an event, not a legal act, and no source dates it. 2011 is the earliest year the lettered stage is reported to have been running.

## How numbers are issued

sequential from 00000; leading zeros are part of the form, since the range is written as beginning 00000

## Format notes

Every secondary account describes the pre-2011 plates as "black on white" without ever stating the grammar; art. 6.2 of Decret 456/2022 (and art. 3.2 of the 2011 Decret before it) states it exactly, in the course of describing the scheme's first stage.
