The format above follows the issuing rules: a registration that fits it is one this series could have issued.

About this plate
THE LIGHT-GREEN CORPORATE PLATE, in force 1 January 2024, a tax-policy instrument wearing a plate. Article 1-2(5) defines 법인업무용 자동차 by ACQUISITION VALUE: passenger cars of 80 million won or more that are (가) public vehicles of central and local government, the courts, the National Assembly, the Constitutional Court or the election commissions; (나) non-business passenger cars whose registered owner is a corporation, leasing-company cars counting only where the lessee is a corporation; or (다) rental-company cars hired to a corporation, where the hire runs a year or more. Article 1-3(5) lets an agency head, in consultation with the Minister, exempt a vehicle used directly for close protection, security or criminal investigation. Format is the ordinary eight-character non-commercial mark; only the ground colour changes, which is exactly why it is a separate series and not a variant, Art. 4(4)나2) gives it its own colorimetry and its own CIEDE2000 tolerance.
About the format
Digit skeleton only; eight-character mark on the ordinary non-commercial layout, e.g. 123가4568 on a light-green ground.
