The Cabinet of Ministers has approved a resolution submitted by the Minister of Transport to remove provincial letter codes when issuing vehicle number plates.
The Minister has cited difficulties experienced both by the Department of Motor Traffic as well as motorists at the time of transferring the ownership between provinces. Provincial letter codes were initially issued to make it easy for vehicular emission tests and annual revenue license issuance.
Since a unique number is issued to each registered vehicle at its registration, the identity of each vehicle can be easily recognised across the departmental database, the Minister has mentioned in the resolution.
