The procedure for issuing license plates in Russia

Let's consider the most common type of numbers in the Russian Federation:

These are the numbers that are installed on most cars.

At first glance, the number consists of a random sequence of letters and numbers. In fact, not everything is so simple here.

All numbers from 0 to 9 are used on license plates. However, unlike numbers, not all letters of the Russian alphabet can appear on license plates. This privilege is given only to those letters that have similar spellings in the Latin alphabet. Those. Only the letters A, B, E, K, M, N, O, R, S, T, U, X can be used on license plates.

You might have learned about this fact before, but the next thought will probably seem interesting to you. We will talk about the order in which the numbers are issued .

Politics[edit]

Residence of the administration and parliament of Pskov, House of Soviets

During the Soviet period, high authority in the region was divided between three persons: the first secretary of the Pskov Committee of the CPSU (who actually had the greatest powers), the chairman of the regional council (legislative power) and the chairman of the regional council. regional executive committee (executive branch). Since 1991, the CPSU lost all power and the head of the regional administration, and eventually the governor was appointed/elected along with the elected regional parliament.

The Charter of the Pskov Region is the basic law of the region. The Legislative Assembly of the Pskov Region is a permanent legislative (representative) body of the region. The Legislative Assembly exercises its powers by adopting laws, regulations and other legal acts, as well as monitoring the implementation and compliance with the laws and other legal acts adopted by it. The highest executive body is the Regional Government, which includes territorial executive bodies such as district administrations, committees and commissions that promote development and manage the day-to-day affairs of the region. The regional administration supports the activities of the Governor, who is the highest official and acts as a guarantor of compliance with the regional charter in accordance with the Constitution of Russia.

Explanations and comments

According to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of June 26, 2013 No. 478, three-digit codes with the first digit 7 (777, 779, 799, etc.) were introduced in 2013. Instead of the expected 2, the number 7 is used, since a) 2 does not fit into the space allocated for the region code on the registration plate, b) 7 is better recognized by cameras recording offenses. However, a limited series of numbers with codes 277 and 299 were still issued.

According to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of January 5, 2000 No. 5, in 2000 all license plates of the Chechen Republic were replaced: instead of code 20, code 95 was used. License plates with code 20 can no longer be found on the roads. This measure is related to counteracting the situation of accumulation of criminal vehicles at that time.

In connection with the unification and renaming of regions, changes occurred in some codes:

According to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of August 7, 2013 No. 605, when reselling a car, it is allowed to keep the old license plates. Replacement with new numbers can be carried out at the request of the new owner. Thus, linking the code on the license plate to the region of residence/registration of the owner ceases to be relevant.

Administrative division[edit]

Main article: Administrative division of the Pskov region

Administratively, the region is divided into two cities of regional subordination (Pskov and Velikiye Luki) and twenty-four districts. Twelve more cities have the status of cities of regional significance. [28]

Limited access[edit]

Territories close to the Estonian-Russian and Latvian-Russian borders are included in the border security zone, intended to protect the borders of the Russian Federation from unwanted activity. None of the cities and towns are currently included in the border security zone. To visit the zone, permission from the local FSB department is required. [29]

Code table

Regions in the table are sorted by number and divided for convenience into blocks according to the first digit. In parentheses after the name of the region are the years in which license plates with the corresponding region code were issued. For such regions, new codes have been introduced, which are listed at the end of the list, indicating the year of entry into force. Regions without indications in brackets use only one code, which is still valid today. To quickly obtain all the codes for a particular region, we recommend using the search form or referring to the list of regions with several codes located below the table.

Transport[edit]

The railway connecting Bologoe and Pskov via Dno and Porkhov crosses the region from east to west. It continues to Pechory and across the border to Tartu, although there is no rail passenger service between Pskov and Estonia. In Pskov it crosses another railway connecting St. Petersburg with Riga via Plyussa, Ostrov and Pytalovo. Gdov is connected by rail to Weimarn via Slantsy. This is part of the railway that ran south to Pskov, however the section between Gdov and Pskov was destroyed during the Second World War and was never rebuilt. In the south there is a railway connecting Moscow with Riga that crosses the region from east to west, passing through Velikie Luki, Novosokolniki and Sebezh. Another railway, running in the east of the region in a north-south direction, connects St. Petersburg through Dno and Novosokolniki with Nevel. At Nevel it splits into two railway lines, both running south-east into Belarus: one line to Vitebsk, and the other to Grodno via Polotsk and Molodechno. Finally, Velikiye Luki is the final station of the railway running northeast to Bologoye.

The road network in the region is relatively dense, with the exception of depopulated wetlands in the east of the region. The two most significant motorways are the M9 motorway, which connects Moscow and Riga and runs from east to west, and the M20 motorway, which connects St. Petersburg and Kyiv, from north to south. Two routes intersect near Pustoshka. Some sections of the road are toll. The island is the northern terminus of the European route E262, which goes to Kaunas via Rezekne and Daugavpils.

The region is served by airports in Pskov and Velikiye Luki. Pskov Airport (Kresty) serves regular flights to Moscow Domodedovo and St. Petersburg Pulkovo. [40] These flights are operated by local airlines.

The lowest part of the Great River is navigable.

Region codes on license plates in 2022

Good afternoon, dear reader.

In this article we will talk about state registration plates (car license plates) . The numbers are assigned to the car during its registration with the traffic police and remain in place until one of the next owners decides to replace them, or the car’s registration is terminated.

Registration marks are unique, i.e. Two different cars cannot have the same number plates at the same time. The numbers always differ by at least one letter or number. Today we will look at the features and procedure for issuing license plates, as well as automobile region codes on the license plates.
