- About this plate
- PERSONALISED INSCRIPTIONS, from 31 March 2014. Two details worth keeping: the 2014 text allowed an all-digit inscription for vehicles registered that way BEFORE 1 JANUARY 1954, a grandfather clause reaching back to the pre-numberplate era, and the 2022 re-cut dropped it, so an all-digit personalised inscription is no longer obtainable. And arrete royal art. 22 § 2 carries the one recorded fact about a retired index: a holder with a reserved number whose plate no longer complies may keep the old number, "a l'exception des marques d'immatriculation commencant par un chiffre (index) '9'", in which case the number survives WITHOUT the leading 9.
