In 1996, five years after the independence of Uzbekistan, the first Uzbek registration system was introduced. The license plates began with two light blue area numbers. A vertical line was followed by a letter and four digits. Regulatory plates had two letters and three digits. For two-line signs, the region numbers were in the lower right corner. Identifiers for pendants had three digits, a letter and beveled lower corners. Diplomatic license plates were reserved for green background. They started with the letters D (diplomat), T (technical staff) or CMD (head of mission) depending on their status . Then two pairs of digits appeared, separated by a hyphen. Foreign companies and joint ventures were given blue labels with the same structure, preceded by an M. Foreigners were given yellow license plates, which initially showed the light blue region number in front of the letter H and four digits. Marks of the armed forces were written in white on a black background.
The license plates had to be exchanged for new ones by January 1, 2011.
