 | | A vehicle registration plate, usually called license plate or number plate (often referred to simply as a plate, or colloquially tag) is a small metal or plastic plate attached to a motor vehicle or trailer for official identification purposes. |
 | | This number, when coupled with other information on the plates (such as the color scheme, name of the issuing jurisdiction, and/or the type of vehicle) is unique to the vehicle and identifies it in government databases by make, model, year, VIN, and the name and address of the vehicle's registered owner. |
 | | The personalised plate industry in the United Kingdom is huge, with a large number of private dealers acting as agents for DVLA issues as well as holding their own private stock. |
