For each of your size. What will new car numbers look like

10.05.2021

Rosstandard approved a new standard of state registration signs of vehicles: the corresponding order is posted on the official website of the department. New GOST R 50577-2018 changes a similar document with a number 50577-93 and enters into force on January 1, 2019.

Rumors about changes in Guest have long been and turned out all new fantastic assumptions. However, in fact, the change is not so significant and will not touch the bulk of motorists. They are primarily important for machine owners imported from Japan and America for "gray" channels, owners of classical and racing cars, motorcyclists and owners of off-road motorcycles.

According to the publication of a merchant who managed to familiarize himself with a new document, ten new types of registration marks is introduced in the country. For cars with non-standard platforms for fastening numbers, two-line rear signs are pronounced. They eliminate the need to use adapters, moreover, now in the rooms it will be possible to drill non-standard holes for fasteners, if the characters do not suffer.

A new format is provided for classic cars: a large letter "K" will appear in a separate section on the left. And for sports machines made on public roads, the sign of the same format will be distinguished by the letter "C". By the way, veterans veterans with square venues can also be equipped with two-line signs.

The gift of motorcyclists is a reduced size number: 190x145 mm instead of the current 245x160 mm. Such signs will be scented at most fixing areas of imported motorcycles that took this market in almost entirely. The same numbers will be mandatory for quad biccles and scooters with a working volume of over 50 cubes. Mounted equipment to equip state license plates do not plan yet. In addition, foreign diplomatic motorcycles will now have rooms with a red background, like their cars.

However, it is hoped that new license plates will be removed from the ubiquitous road cameras, it is not worthwhile: manufacturers of such equipment assure that by the time of the new GOST, the camera will be supplemented with the recognition feature and such numbers.

Last week about the development of a new standard of state registration signs of vehicles, that is, numbers that are issued when registering cars, motorcycles and other equipment. The development of the document is engaged in the Institute of BDD of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. It was there that the editors "behind the wheel.rf" received a copy of the project of the new GOST R 50577 in the first edition.

The main thing: no RFID labels, changes in the number of numbers or letters, failures from the region's code are not planned. That is, ordinary car numbers will remain in the format of M000 mm 55, where the last two digits indicate the region code.

The only thing will change dramatically: it will become more types and size of numbers. In addition, the standard appeared clarifications. For example, "Motonards" disappeared from GOST, but "off-road motor vehicles and snowmobiles" appeared. A new type of rear state number has appeared for passenger and trucks with non-standard size (type 2): unlike ordinary numbers it is two-line, and its dimensions are 290x150 mm against 520x112 mm at one-time. Such rooms should get up as relatives on cars from Japan and the USA.

The end and torment of motorcyclists came: most sites for a number on modern motorcycles are adapted for a more compact number than today. If the new grade of the GOST is approved, then the length of such a number (type 6) will decrease by 15 mm (up to 230 mm), and the height is 60 mm (up to 125 mm). Now you do not have to invent, how to securely fasten the number, well, complicate readability, bending the number and justifies the design design, will also no longer work.

Guest has appeared new types of vehicles: classic (retro) passenger and trucks, classic (retro) motorcycles and mopeds, sports motorcycles, sports passenger cars and trucks. Their numbers resemble transit: the left is highlighted a separate cell with an appropriate letter, and the number has a mm 000 55 format. The sizes correspond to the usual standard rooms and rooms for vehicles with a non-standard mounting place.

For classic (retro) passenger and trucks (type 22 and 23) and motorcycles (type 24), they begin with the letter "K".

Rooms for sports motorcycles (type 27), passenger and trucks (type 25 and 26), respectively, begin with the letter "C" and also have a mm 000 55 format.

Actually, on this all changes in Guest are completed. While incomprehensible remains that the developers mean under sports vehicles. If we are talking about racing technology, then cars are obliged to have a state number only in rally and rally-raids, where there are distillations on public roads. It is impossible to exclude that a new category of vehicles may appear in the rules of the road traffic. It is possible that cars with a motor will be equal to the sports engine powerful 250 hp and with a specific body type.

Naturally, according to the results of the discussion, and after it, new amendments can be made to GOST, it will have to rewrite and complement. So, to expect his entry into force only by the end of next year.

From January 1, 2019, in accordance with the order of Rosstandart, 555-states, a new GOST "Signs of state registration vehicles" is enforced. According to the document, ten new types of license plates will appear in Russia.

The format of the numbers will remain the same - M000 mm 55, where the two recent digits mean the region code. Motorcycle numbers will decrease in size: their size will be 230 × 125 mm (today motorcyclists are forced to use adapters to excavation, which are 15 mm longer than 60 mm).

Entered GOST and numbers for mopeds. In size, they are identical to a motorcycle, but have a MM 000 AA 55 format. Such rooms are designed for scooters that are subject to state registration (with an engine with a volume of more than 50 cu. See).

For passenger cars and trucks, a new non-standard sizes of the rear number appears: it is double-dimensional, and its dimensions are 290 × 150 mm against 520 × 112 mm at the standard room. Such signs should be in the "native" places of cars from North America and Japan.

New types of rooms on cars will start issuing from January 1, 2019

Guest appears new types of rooms. The first are intended for classic motorcycles, passenger cars and trucks, they are planned to be installed on retro factors. Their sizes correspond to the standard, but on the left there is a separate cell with the letter "K", and the number itself has a MM 000 55 format. A similar format has a state person for sports cars.

There are technical changes: for example, each billet for the number must have a unique 12-digit number. Car owners can now drill additional holes in the rooms, the main thing is that they do not hurt the symbols, the flag of Russia and the inscription Rus.

The new GOST "Signs of state registration vehicles will begin to act from January 1, 2019 in accordance with the order of Rosstandart 555-art. The development of the document began in 2016 on the initiative of the Scientific Center for the Traffic Safety of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation.

What are the changes that come into force on January 1, 2018

The main changes that will enter into force in 2019 will be as follows.

  1. Residents of the Russian Federation, which are owners of foreign motorcycles, will be able to get a number of reduced 190x145 mm, because Russian numbers of 245x160 mm are quite difficult to establish due to their overallity.
  2. Special rooms will begin to appear for American and Japanese cars. These marks will be 290x170 mm in size, and it will be possible to install them in that the cabin in which a foreign car was purchased.
  3. Especially for owners of mopeds will be created license plates. In size, they will be the same as reduced versions of motorcycle, but at the same time signs will differ.
  4. Own license plates enrich the owners of quad bikes, which are not intended for movement on ordinary roads. Their sizes are also reduced versions of motorcycle numbers.
  5. To highlight the vintage cars, new numbers will be introduced, which will begin with the letter "K", which will mean "classic"
  6. Also, special numbers will be introduced for sports cars - they will begin with the letter "C", which will mean "Sport".

The State Duma discussed the introduction of license plates for bicycles and electric vehicles, but they were not accepted. Also, new German fonts were not adopted, which were discussed by the authorities.

Good afternoon, dear reader.

This article will consider the new GOST R 50577-2018 "Signs of state registration vehicles. Types and main dimensions. Technical requirements", which comes to shift GOST R 50577-93 from August 420.

It was originally assumed that GOST will begin to operate from January 1, 2019, but the date was transferred several times. Currently, in the order of the Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology, it is stated that the standard will begin to operate on August 4, 2020. This exists the possibility of its early use.

GOST R 50577-2018 is positioned as an absolutely new standard, but by its structure it is largely repeated by a preceding document. Nevertheless, there are important innovations that will be discussed today:

Non-standard cars for cars

First of all, GOST introduces new numbers for cars that have a non-standard mounting place ("square"):

3.2.1 Vehicles Group 1

The following types of registration signs are established:

  • type 1A - registration signs for passenger, trucks and buses with a non-standard mounting place (except related to type 1B);

An example of a similar "square" number:

Note, the new sample plate contains exactly the same combination of characters as the usual number. Its only difference is the recording of characters in 2 rows.

The rooms of this format are used in other states (for example, in Japan). In order to secure the standard room on a car intended for the Japan market, you need to use a special adapter. Starting from August 4, 2020, two-level numbers will appear in the standard and the adapter will not need to fasten them.

In addition, the square number can be set only on the back vehicle (application in GOST):

1 On vehicles with a non-standard place of fastening of registration marks allow the installation of the rear registration sign of type 1A instead of the type 1 registration sign.

Thus, the driver in any case will have to use the extended state number on the front of the car. But the format plate for the rear can be selected.

Rooms for mopeds in 2020

Note. In 2020, the registration of mopeds in the traffic police is not required and the numbers are not issued on them.

As for the content of guests, they always envisaged numbers for mopeds. Old GOST 50577-93 offered to be used for mopeds Motorcycle numbers:

In GOST 50577-2018, a separate sign of a new sample is highlighted for mopeds:

The only difference is that in the upper row of the moped number 2 letters are used instead of 2 digits.

Rooms for quad bikes and snowmobiles

  • type 4A - registration signs for off-road motor-tartal agents that are not intended for movement on public road roads (snow-beams. Motovisters);

In this case, the situation is similar to the numbers for mopeds. Earlier, the same numbers were issued on qualkls and snowmobiles as on motorcycles. In 2020, a separate plate type is provided for them:

This room features motorcycle in that it was changed in places the upper and lower rows.

Rooms for classic cars

  • type 23 - registration signs for classic (retro) passenger and trucks;
  • type 24 - registration signs for classic (retro) passenger and trucks with a non-standard mounting place;
  • type 25 - registration signs for classic (retro) motorcycles;

Rooms for retro cars additionally include the "K" symbol.

It is currently unknown to which cars, in what cases, and for what such numbers will be issued.

Rooms for sports motorcycles and cars

  • type 26 - registration signs for sports passenger and trucks;
  • type 27 - registration signs for sports passenger cars and trucks with non-standard mounting places;
  • type 28 - registration signs for sports motorcycles.

Registration signs for sports vehicles include an additional "C" symbol.

Motorcycle rooms of diplomatic and consular institutions

Another new version of the registration sign is intended for motorcycles of diplomatic and consular institutions:

  • type 11 - registration marks for motorcycles diplomatic missions, consular institutions, including those led by honorary consular officials, international (interstate) organizations and their employees accredited under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.

In conclusion, I want to pay attention to the fact that GOST establishes only the appearance of registration signs. The rules and conditions for issuing numbers should be regulated by other regulatory documents, the changes in which are currently not made.

Therefore, although GOST and enters into force on August 4, 2020, it remains unknown when new varieties of numbers begin to be issued.

I also want to note that the numbers issued earlier no need to change on new ones.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello. Initially, GOST R 50577-1018 "Signs of state registration vehicles. Types and main sizes. Technical requirements" should have been in force from January 1, 2019. Order of Rosstandart from 04.09.2018. №555-art. Then this order was made by the order of December 18, 2018. № 1131-ST On transfer to action from 01/01/2019. on 04.08.2019 And now in order No. 555-states made a change in order of July 23, 2019. №423, namely, replace the words "August 4, 2019" On the words "August 4, 2020 with the right of early application." It is clear that the transfer is made due to the larger reserves of regnetas in the traffic police warehouses and the Gostechnadzor. Question: Does the formulation "with the right of early application" gives the right to apply to the organization manufacturing regnetas, for the manufacture of signs on the new GOST and establish them on their own cars until 04.08.2020.?

Pavel, Hello.

By itself, the guests no additional rights to the driver does not give, he only says which numbers can be.

Current legislation allows you to independently make only numbers in the organization that correspond to previously issued signs. In order for the signs of new options to be issued, the regulatory documents of the traffic police should be updated, describing the issuance of such signs.

For example, it is possible that a car with a new number of rooms will be put any additional mark.

That is, the inscription "with the right of early use" speaks only that the traffic police can issue its regulatory documents earlier than August 4, 2020. After that, drivers will be able to get the numbers of the new form.

Good luck on the roads!

"Square number can only be installed on the back of the vehicle (apartments in GOST):". Note In the application, only allows for the installation on the TC with a non-standard place to fasten the sign of different types of signs ahead and back along with the usual setting of 2 identical types of forward and back 1 or type A1 numbers. That is, you have 3 installation options:

1. Two signs of type 1 in front and rear

2. Type 1 Front and type A1 Behind

3. Two signs of type A1 and in front and rear.

Good evening.

"GOST R 50577-2018. National Standard of the Russian Federation. Signs of state registration vehicles. Types and main dimensions. Technical requirements" (approved by order of Rosstandart from 04.09.2018 N 555-st);

There is a comment

The amendments developed by representatives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation suggest a decrease in the size of registration marks for motorcycles, also such rear rooms will be able to receive owners of American and Japanese cars. Another change is presumably their own state signs from retro and sports cars.

The Research Center for Road Safety Problems has initiated the development of a new edition of the State Standard for license plates, the Kommersant reports this with reference to the head of the center of Oleg Portashnikov. He noted that one of the problems is too small platform for rear room at motorcycles of foreign production (245 mm x 160 mm). Used adapters - frames do not have sufficient reliability: there are often cases when the signs bent and broke off due to the wind stream at high speed. The new edition assumes that "motorway" will be close to Western standards.

The revision of the GOST is possible for passenger cars of Japanese and American origin, as many of them have non-standard places for fastening numbers. It is proposed to allow car owners to make additional holes in signs, as well as for foreign cars can make rectangular rear numbers under their regular mounts.

Special numbers may appear in competitions of competitions and retro factors. They will allow the first to travel along the roads of general use during the Rally, and the second is to be operated on special conditions, for example, to leave on the weekend, to stay away from high-speed trails, within a certain distance from the place of residence of the owner and other.


Designed in the Russian Federation sketches of new numbers were sent to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The agency noted that the revision of GOST-50577 was laid in a standardization plan for 2017. The approval of the National Standard will presumably be held in October 2018, and after 3 - 18 months after that, the document should take effect.

In the summer of the current year, the Kololy.Ru portal reported that. According to the initiative, the department should only assign a number, and each car owner will be manufactured in specialized workshops at its own expense.
