About this plate
Brazil's black plate, white characters on a black ground, blue band, no MERCOSUL emblem, no watermark, no micro-inscriptions, white BR, created by Res. 969/2022 and NOT present in Res. It is available only to collector vehicles "classificados como originais" under separate CONTRAN collector rules, and the trade-off is explicit in the plate: dropping the Mercosul identity means the vehicle may not use it outside Brazil ("uso restrito ao território nacional").
