How to read the plate
The UAE has no single plate: each of the seven emirates issues its own design, and the region is recognised by the emirate's name written in Arabic and English. The site draws a Dubai plate: one or two Latin letters on the left, the wordmark دبي above DUBAI in the centre and a number of up to five digits on the right. The letters are a series within the emirate, not a region code. Some Dubai plates also show a month and year next to DUBAI.

Earlier emirate plates also showed the region by the emirate's name; only the series codes changed. The current designs came in at different times: Abu Dhabi in 2016–2017, Dubai in 2017 (a short European-size plate), Sharjah in 2023.
