Are you planning to buy a car? Here we bring you the latest license plate numbers for each state in the country as of February 27.
Malaysia’s license plates are arranged in alphabetical and numerical order and you can know where the vehicle is registered from the license plate letters. However, now that JPJ has allowed people to bid online for the license plate numbers of other states, it is no longer accurate to tell which state the vehicle is registered in from the license plate number.
The first letter of a Malaysian license plate represents the state, such as Selangor is B, Johor is J, Penang is P, Kedah is K, Negeri Sembilan is N, Pahang is C, Perak is A, Sabah is S, Sarawak is Q, etc.
The second and third letters are used as the license plate order. For example, in Selangor, the license plate will start from BRA to BRY, then from BSA to BSY, and so on. However, the letters I, O, and Z will not be used on the license plate, this is to not be confused with the numbers 1, 0, and 2.
As of February 27, 2023, the latest license plate order for Johor to JVY2022, for Selangor to BRG3437, for Penang to PQR5316, for Perak to AMU6591, for Kuala Lumpur to VKF3812 and so on.
