Azerbaijan vehicle license plates From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vehicle registration plates of Azerbaijan are usually composed of two numbers (identifying the vehicle registration department), a hyphen, two letters, a hyphen and three numbers (e.g. 31-PO-069); the plates are coloured in black font on a white background. The plates are the same size as European plates and usually have an Azerbaijani flag and the initials 'AZ' on the left side.
In September 2011, new style plates with a rectangular flag and a microchip were introduced. The Azerbaijan license plate incorporates an RFiD TAG/chip. The RFiD TAG is placed on the lower left corner of the license plate below the Azerbaijan national flag, in most plates the TAG has the "AZ" letters printed on. The TAG may move to the top right corner and lose the "AZ" printing on some of the more squared license plate formats. The colour of the LP still varies depending on the vehicles usage and ownership.
The Portuguese company Porta Saber, Lda supplies the license plate RFiD TAG and the License Plate RFiD Reading System and Software.
Between 1977 and 1993, Azerbaijan registration plates were manufactured in accordance with the Soviet GOST 3207-77 standard. The alphanumeric sequence took the form of: x #### XX, where x is a lowercase Cyrillic serial/counter letter; # is any digit in the range 0–9; and XX are two uppercase Cyrillic letters indicating where the vehicle was first registered.
Azerbaijan used codes АГ, АЖ and АЗ without particularity of city or department.
As with Turkish plates (which in turn adopted a reversed version of the former French license plate system), in Azerbaijani plates the first two digits of the license plate represent the department, followed by a progressive 2-letter and 3-number system (progression starting with 90-AA-001 and ending with 90-ZZ-999). Below is a table of digits and relevant departments,[2] bold means this department is a part of Naxçıvan AR):
