About this plate
NUMERALS FIRST, LETTERS SECOND, REPORTED FROM MAY 1998, the inverse of the arrangement it replaced, which is the whole change. Both the arrangement and the 1998 date come from the per-province encyclopedia article's format table, tagged accordingly; no SGI or Saskatchewan source was reachable to confirm either. THE STRONGEST THING IN THIS RECORD IS NOT THE FORMAT. It is the display regime: single plate since 30 June 2004, stickerless since around October 2012, both from the province's own releases. A current Saskatchewan vehicle therefore shows ONE plate carrying NO validity marker, the same end state Idaho reached in July 2026 by abolishing both its sticker and its replacement cycle, arrived at eleven years earlier by a different route.
