The current license plates of Serbia were introduced on January 1, 2011 after a long preparation. The introduction was originally planned for July 2009, but was then postponed. The Kosovo forgives own license plates , which are not recognized in the Serbian heartland. The administrative districts in Kosovo no longer correspond to the Serbian system.

construction

The license plates are based on the European standard and for the first time correspond to the unit size of 520 mm × 110 mm. The signs first show the two letters of the approval district, followed by the Serbian sign . The approval district abbreviation appears in Cyrillic script under the coat of arms . This is followed by three digits and two letters. On the left side there is a blue bar on which the country code SRB ( Serbian Srb ija) can be seen. This blue border can be extended by the twelve European stars if Serbia becomes a member of the EU . With two-line license plates, the lines are separated from one another by a horizontal black line.

In order to complicate forgery, a special reflective film can be used and RFID - chips installed. With the introduction of the new plates, custom license plates are now also possible in Serbia , in which the combination according to the coat of arms can be freely selected.

License plate types

The basic design features of the Yugoslav license plates have been adopted for the current system .

  • License plates for trailers have a different structure, with the region code appearing on the right edge.
  • Vehicles with very different dimensions have red license plates with white letters.
  • Green license plates with black lettering are used for agricultural vehicles.
  • Smaller two-wheelers have yellow signs.
  • Temporary signs begin with the letters RP or RPE .
  • The Serbian police use license plates with white letters on a blue background. After the Cyrillic letter П (Latin P), they show two groups of digits.

Marks of the armed forces

The Serbian armed forces have been using changed signs since 2009. Their dimensions are similar to the Yugoslav license plates and do not have a blue band on the left edge. The Serbian coat of arms appears at the beginning. This is followed by a letter, a hyphen and a final number.

Diplomatic plates

Diplomatic license plates have a black background and yellow lettering. They first show the region abbreviation on top of one another, followed by several digits that encode the country of origin of the diplomatic mission or organization. A point is followed by a letter which provides information about the status of the mission. After a consecutive three-digit number, the sign ends on the right-hand side with the year number, e.g. B. 11 for 2011.

history

License plate from Belgrade until December 31, 2010
License plate from Loznica with the Serbian flag until December 31, 2010
Motorbike registration until December 31, 2010

Serbia was part of the SFR Yugoslavia until 1992 and then, along with Montenegro, one of two republics of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the successor state of Serbia and Montenegro . In 1961, uniform numbers were introduced for all of Yugoslavia. They consisted of a two-letter region code followed by a red star. In the following four to six digits appeared, divided into two groups by a hyphen. In 1998 the red star was replaced by the flag of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia . Except for this small change, Serbia continued the registration system of the SFR Yugoslavia until the end of 2010. License plates for agricultural vehicles as well as for smaller two-wheelers always showed the full name of the municipality and a consecutive number.

In 2008, Montenegro introduced its own labeling system . Until then, the license plates of Serbia and Montenegro could practically only be assigned to one of the two states using the abbreviation of the registration area or the nationality symbol . Since the signs were significantly shorter compared to the European standard, they were often supplemented on the left by a field with the symbolism of the respective (sub) state. Shown were u. a. Coat of arms and / or flag of Serbia or Montenegro as well as the national flag of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro.

The nationality code was Y (until 1952) or YU (until 2003) for English. Yu goslavia . Between 2003 and independence, Serbia and Montenegro used the letters SCG for Serbian S rbija i C rna G ora. The current abbreviation is SRB , while Montenegro uses MNE .
