Number plate decode

GET /v1/check/plate recognises current (AB12 CDE), prefix (1983 to 2001), and suffix (1963 to 1983) GB formats. For current plates it estimates the registration season and year from the age identifier and maps the memory tag to a DVLA area label.

This is not a DVLA ownership or MOT lookup. It only decodes what the characters on the plate imply.

Try it
