Current Number Plates
Current Style Number Plates are the modern face of UK registrations. Featuring a two-digit age identifier at the start, these plates clearly show the year of release while still offering excellent personalisation options. At PrimoReg, we provide access to the latest current style registrations, including newly released and upcoming series. You can return to our main Home page at any time to explore every registration category available.
What Are Current Number Plates?
Area
Age
Random
Introduced in 2001, current registrations follow the format
Two Letters + Two Numbers (Age Identifier) + Three Letters
The two numbers indicate the vehicle's registration period. For example, 2026 number plates will carry the relevant age code reflecting that release cycle.
Because they clearly display the registration year, they're often referred to as age identifier plates. They're ideal for drivers who want a fresh, up-to-date look while keeping a personalised element in the final three letters.
If you prefer something more traditional, you may wish to explore older formats such as dateless or prefix registrations. However, for modern styling and availability, current plates remain extremely popular.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do the numbers on a current plate mean?
The two numbers in the middle of a current style registration indicate the registration period. For example, "74" represents plates issued from September 2024, and "25" from March 2025.
When are new plates released?
New registrations are released twice a year in the UK — in March and September. Each release carries a new age identifier code reflecting the release period.
Are current plates cheaper than older plates?
Current plates are generally more affordable than dateless or prefix registrations, especially for common combinations. Rare personalised combinations can still command premium prices.
Can I choose specific letters on my plate?
Yes — the final three letters of a current style plate can be selected to spell initials, a name, or a meaningful combination, subject to DVLA availability.
