Vehicle registration plates of Greece

The current license plate Greece are analogous to those made ​​in most other EU countries, so black text on a white background; left a blue ribbon with the character of the European Union ( circle of twelve stars ), including the nationality code GR. The mark consists of three letters, of which the first two information about the local transport authority - the most with the prefecture (or their administrative seat ) matches - in which the vehicle is registered, giving, followed by a four digit number combination.

Normally, only those letters are used, - occur both in Greek and in the Latin alphabet - at least from the outer appearance to. Exceptions are the special license plate, also do not follow the standard layout: firefighting vehicles ( ΠΣ for Πυροσβεστικό Σώμα, Pyrosvestiko Soma / fire ) Military Vehicles ( ΛΣ for Λιμενικό Σώμα ( Limeniko soma) / Coast Guard, ΠΝ for Πολεμικό Ναυτικό ( Polemiko Naftiko ) / Navy, ΠΑ for Πολεμική Αεροπορία ( Polemiki Aeroporia ) / Air Force ), the vehicles of the Diplomatic Corps ( ΔΣ for Διπλωματικό Σώμα, Diplomatiko Soma ) and ambassadors ( ΞΑ for Ξένες Αποστολές, Xenes apostoles ). For police vehicles, the letters are indeed in Latin and Greek existent ( for Ε.Α. Ελληνική Αστυνομία, Elliniki Astynomia ), but the appearance of signs differs because of the dot character after each of the two letters and the absence of a third letter from also from the usual. Special Features, which may also have Greek letters, depending on the needs, the official car of the metropolitans (religious Chairman, about the bishop accordingly), with golden three-dimensional letters on a black background have ( rare black on white). Under the letter combination ΔΟΚ ( Δοκιμαστικές, Dokimastikes ) vehicles in the test drive will receive a temporary permit.

The third letter of the current shield is made dependent in some districts of the type of vehicle, thus partially certain letters are only for motorcycles, used only for other cars. Shields for motorcycles and cars also differ based on their numbers, so the numbers in two-wheelers are one to three digits, always using four passenger cars.

Greek car license plates apply (vehicle ) for life: After moving to a different prefecture, the vehicle retains its mark, so you can not close the number plate on the place of residence of the vehicle owner. Thus, for example, number plates Athens in Greece are very common.
