## About this plate

MARQUE D'IMMATRICULATION INTERNATIONALE, the long-duration temporary plate, for diplomatic and consular staff, SHAPE and NATO personnel and comparable holders whose vehicle does not carry a CD plate. A NEGATIVE FINDING WORTH RECORDING: since 01-01-2021 this plate is NOT distinguishable from an ordinary plate by its string. The 2019 instrument dropped that, and no replacement marker appears anywhere in the consolidated text. Art. 6 § 2 adds a rule a claims model should keep: on expiry "l'inscription ne peut pas etre conservee pour une immatriculation sous une plaque normale", the one Belgian number that its holder may NOT keep.
