What's the license plate number in Hong Kong?
Hong Kong license plates can be roughly divided into two types, one is a civilian license plate and the other is a government-specific license plate. At present, the civil license plate consists of two English letters, with a set of numbers ranging from 1 to 4. The earliest license plate issued in Hong Kong has no initials, only numbers between 1 and 9999. Later, letters beginning with HK appeared, while government-specific license plates had no letters, numbers or registration numbers.
After the vehicle is registered in the relevant departments, the owner will get a random ordinary vehicle registration number. If you want to get a special number, you need to apply to the transportation department and then enter the auction house to bid. But numbers can't start with 0, and the letters I, Q and O can't be used.
