How to read the plate
EU band
The blue band with the EU flag and the country code D.
Region code
Letters at the start of the number.
Series and number
Letters and digits — the registration itself.
A German plate starts with the code of the registration district — one to three letters, including Ä, Ö and Ü: B is Berlin, M Munich, N Nuremberg. Next come two seals: the inspection sticker on top and the state seal with its coat of arms below. They are followed by one or two letters and one to four digits, eight characters at most. A final E marks an electric car, an H a historic vehicle. A city and the surrounding district often share one code, and one district can have several codes.

History
The current system dates from 1956 in West Germany and from 1990–1991 in the eastern states; before 1956 occupation-zone codes were used, and the GDR had its own system by district. District reforms of 1969–1981 and the 1990s abolished hundreds of codes. Since 1 November 2012 districts may again issue the old codes of abolished districts, and since 2015 a number can be kept when moving to another district.
