English Version

Greek vehicle registration plates are composed of three letters and four digits. The letters represent the district that issues the plates while the numbers begin from 1000 to 9999. Similar plates with digits beginning from 1 to 999 are issued for motorcycles which exceed 50 cc.

With the exception of Athens and Thessaloniki, all districts are represented by the first 2 letters. The final letter in the sequence changes in Greek alphabetical order after 9,000 issued plates. For example, Heraklio plates are HPA, where HP represents the Heraklio prefecture. When HPA-9999 is reached, the plates turn to HPB-1000 and this continues until HP? is finished. Only letters that are common between the Latin and Greek alphabets by glyph appearance are used, namely A, B, E, Z, H, I, K, M, N, O, P, T, Y, X (in Greek alphabetical order), even though the Greek B, H, P, and X don't represent the same sound as in the English alphabet.

Ordinary series that are currently being issued per district
