Israel license plates

Custom text: real plates never carry this combination.

This image is not a license plate: it must not be fitted to a vehicle and does not mean the combination is available.

How to read the plate

Country code
IL is the international code of the country of registration.
No region code
You cannot tell the region from this country's plates.
Series and number
Letters and digits — the registration itself.

An Israeli plate is digits only on a yellow background: seven (12-345-67) or, since 2017, eight (123-45-678). A blue band on the left carries the flag, IL and the word "Israel" in Hebrew and Arabic. The digits are a nationwide sequence; there is no region on the plate.

Region codes

Plates in this country do not show the region — you cannot tell it from the plate.

History

Plates of the British Mandate and the first Israeli series had letter prefixes. The current all-digit yellow format dates from the 1990s, eight-digit numbers from 2017; it has no regional system.
