armtimes.com Specifications have been planned for license plates with high demand for vehicles, where one side of the plate, whether it has two digits or three digits (referring to numbers), always has zeros; in the case of individuals, there are 2 zeros, and in the case of legal entities, there are 3 zeros:
This was stated by Ruslan Marandyan, head of the Legal Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, during a press conference, presenting the new specifications for license plates with high demand for vehicles.
According to him, the Latin letters can be the same, repeated, or different, while the numbers can either be the same number repeated, for example, 3 "1"s, or 2 out of 3 numbers can be repeated, for instance, "121", meaning 2 out of 3 numbers are repeated.
"If we summarize this combination, there are always zeros on one side, the Latin letters are either repeated or different, and on the other side, in the case of 3 numbers, either the same number is repeated 3 times, or the number is repeated 2 times with 1 differing number combination," he said.
Regarding the prices of the license plates, the price segment ranges from 250,000 to 8 million drams.
Ruslan Marandyan stated that the minimum threshold for high-demand registration plates starts at 60,000 drams and ends at 8 million.
"This means that in terms of the Minister of Internal Affairs' order, we have not added specifications in all price segments. We have added in these segments by the Government's decision, and then localized by the minister's order, which fit within the range of 250,000 to 8 million. For example, in the 250,000 dram segment provided to individuals, this combination has been added: '00 +- XXY', where '0' is the number, '+-' are the differing Latin letters, and 'XXY' are the same and differing numbers; for instance, this is the combination '00 AB 771'. And a 600,000 dram license plate is 'XX +- 000'," Marandyan detailed.
According to the head of the Legal Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this refers to registration plates that contain 7 characters, therefore it does not apply to motorcycles.
"This is for those vehicles for which the license plates are designed with 7 characters: 5 numbers and 2 letters."
