Description

Red license plates are issued by the locally competent registration authority to reliable motor vehicle manufacturers, motor vehicle parts manufacturers, motor vehicle workshops and motor vehicle dealers on a temporary or revocable basis for recurring operational use, even on different vehicles. A license plate with red lettering on a white background with red borders consists of a distinguishing sign and an identification number which, like the short-term license plate, consists only of digits and begins with "06".

Note: The red license plate must be used with the special vehicle registration booklet.
