- About this plate
- Diplomatic and consular missions. The right-hand two-digit group is presumably a mission or country code; NO DECODE TABLE IS SOURCED and none ships (V6). Decision 2777 art. 340 ثالثا treats diplomatic and consular as ONE category, so this file does not invent a separate consular series, recording a distinction the instrument does not draw would be as much an error as folding one it does.
- About its years
- Law 121/2008 as for the civilian series; the green diplomatic colour itself long predates it, art. 340 ثالثا gave diplomatic and consular vehicles a green ground with black characters.
