License plate (Azerbaijan)
The license plates of Azerbaijan are based on the European standard and show black letters on a white background.
The flag of Azerbaijan and the nationality symbol AZ can be seen on the left edge of the sign . It is followed by a two-digit number encoding the Rajon or city. A hyphen is followed by two letters, another hyphen and another three digits. The hyphens are not used for trailer license plates.
At the end of 2011, the waving flag was replaced by a rectangular one and the signs were equipped with an RFID transponder.
License plates for foreigners residing in Azerbaijan show a yellow background and an H and six digits in two groups.
Diplomatic license plates have a red background.
Before independence, the Azerbaijani SSR, as part of the Soviet Union, used Soviet license plates .
