Every year vehicle plates change to accommodate for the new year of registration, and every year the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency bans new combinations.
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has released what car plate registrations will be banned for the 23-reg year. Registration plates are often banned because they can be used in combination with other letters to form rude, offensive words or topics that are sensitive. This happens twice a year in March and September when the plates change (from 23 to 73 this year).
This year in particular the DVLA has combed through to remove topics such as Brexit, Covid or the ongoing war in Ukraine. The registration plates CO23 ONA and CO23 RNA have been banned, as they reference Covid. WA23 RUS, WA23 UKR and YE23 WAR have all been banned as they reference the Ukraine-Russia war. And finally, the plates EU23 BAD and EU23 OFF have been blacklisted due to their association with Brexit.
Drug dealers will also be sad to hear the GA23 NJA plate has been blacklisted, for obvious reasons!
Weekly motoring magazine and website AutoExpress has managed to receive a list of all blacklisted 23-reg plates following them doing a Freedom of Information request. You can see the list below but be advised as some of them are offensive.
