About this plate
THE FAST PRØVESKILT, a trade plate for manufacturers, importers, dealers and repairers, bound to the business rather than to a vehicle, and the shortest Danish number at four characters. Its statutory home is §§ 7 a-7 e of lov om registrering af køretøjer rather than the bekendtgørelse. NOT MODELLED AS A SERIES, deliberately: the LØSE PRØVESKILT was replaced by the PRØVEMÆRKE (§§ 78-81), which is self-adhesive plastic film bearing a løbenummer and a validity period, issued at most fourteen days before that period begins and not returned afterwards.
