(Redirected from Yugoslav car number plates)
Car number plates in SFR Yugoslavia showed the place where the car carrying them was registered, in the form of a two-letter code and 3x2 digits numerics, for example: BG 123-456. The letter codes matched the municipalities of Yugoslavia.
The states that emerged on its territory following the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s all replaced the red star with a new emblem. They also amended the format variously:
- Vehicle registration plates of Bosnia and Herzegovina
- Changed to a completely different format in 1998 that does not use geographically based two-letter codes
- Vehicle registration plates of Croatia
- Kept most of the old two-letter codes
- Renamed cities such as Požega caused SP to change to PŽ
- The random part of the plate is different
- Vehicle registration plates of Kosovo
- Switched away from the old two-letter codes to a single "KS" code between numbers in 1999
- Switched to numbers indicating districts in 2010
- Vehicle registration plates of Macedonia
