At present, the civil license plate is Type 92, which has been used nationwide since July 1994. The first number of the license plate is a Chinese character representing the provincial administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is the abbreviation of each province (municipality directly under the central government and autonomous region). For example, Beijing is Beijing, Shanghai is Shanghai, Hunan is Hunan, Chongqing is Chongqing, Shandong is Shandong, Jiangxi is Jiangxi, Fujian is Fujian, and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is Ning.
The second place of the license plate is the English letter representing the administrative region where the vehicle is registered, which is generally the letter code of each prefecture-level city, region, autonomous prefecture and league. Generally, the provincial vehicle management office ranks according to the situation of local administrative regions, and the letter "A" is the code of the central city of the provincial capital, capital or municipality directly under the central government, followed by the letters in no particular order; In addition, I and O are skipped when compiling English letter codes of prefecture-level administrative regions, and O is often used as police cars or government agencies (the letter O in the army and armed police has nothing to do with this).
