99999, for example43892(9 any digit)Nothing to decode, and that is the story: the 1986 reform stripped even RSM off the ordinary plate, leaving five bare digits, the entire national fleet, simply counted.
The format above follows the issuing rules: a registration that fits it is one this series could have issued.

- About this plate
- THE DIGITS-ONLY MODERN PLATE, and the instrument that DROPPED RSM from the ordinary plate, see header finding 1. It also carried a raised 27 mm circle for the revision sticker, a feature that existed only between 1986 and 1993. Its art. 2 is the origin of the CD, POLIZIA and R markings that survive to this day.
- About its years
- START: Decreto 18 dicembre 1986 n. 151, "Istituzione di nuovo modello di targa per i veicoli", published 22 December 1986. END: superseded by Decreto 109/1993, whose art. 1 replaces art. 1 of the 1986 decree.
- How numbers are issued
- Decreto 151/1986 art. 4 names the opening numbers in terms: "Le targhe di cui agli articoli precedenti saranno adottate a partire dai seguenti numeri di immatricolazione: - n. 30.000 per gli autoveicoli - n. 7.600 per motoveicoli - n. 900 per rimorchi - n. 01 Per Corpo Diplomatico". A rare primary statement of series starting points.
- Format notes
- DIGITS ONLY, the decree says "Numeri di immatricolazione a rilievo di colore blu", with no alphabetic character anywhere in the ordinary series. That single word settles the pre-1993 format from primary text rather than from observation.
