About this plate
Croatia's trade plate is a genuinely transferable registration: it comes with a prometna dozvola and a bound book of fifty numbered certificates (čl. 38), each issued for at most seven days, and the evidence of use is part of the record. Issued and withdrawn by the POLICE (čl. 40, čl. 42), not by the inspection stations that do ordinary registration, the only civil series in this file with a different issuing authority.
Region code notes
A WORDING CHANGE WORTH RECORDING. NN 151/2008 čl. 33 st. 1 said the plate carries "oznaka registracijskog područja"; NN 130/2017 čl. 39 st. 1 says it carries "oznaka GRADA", the city. Whether the drafter meant a different set of codes or was writing loosely is not resolvable from the text, and Prilog 1 contains no separate city list.
