How to read the plate

Country code
KSA 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.
County
The first characters are the code of the county where the car is registered: The county where the car is registered is shown separately on the plate:

A Saudi plate is split into four cells: the top row holds the number in Eastern Arabic digits and three Arabic letters, the bottom row repeats them in Latin script, each Arabic letter above its Latin counterpart. The number has one to four digits. A strip on the right carries the national emblem, السعودية and KSA. There is no region on the plate: the letters are a series.

Region codes

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

History

The current design has been issued since the mid-2000s, European-size plates since 2014. Before 1996 plates had three digits and three letters with no Latin line, and earlier still seven digits with the word السعودية. Saudi Arabia has never used region codes.
