What are the city license plate codes in Shaanxi Province?
2 Answers
Shaanxi Province city license plate codes are: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K, V, representing Xi'an City, Tongchuan City, Baoji City, Xianyang City, Weinan City, Hanzhong City, Ankang City, Shangluo City, Yan'an City, Yulin City, respectively. Shaan V refers to Hancheng City, Xingping City, Shangzhou City, and Yangling City. License plates, commonly known as vehicle plates, refer to the plates hung on the front and rear of a vehicle. They are made of materials such as aluminum, sheet iron, plastic, or paper. The primary purpose of a license plate is to identify the region to which the vehicle belongs, and the owner and registration information of the vehicle can be traced through the license plate.
As a seasoned driver with years of experience, I see Shaanxi's license plate codes as quite straightforward—they start with 'Shaan' followed by a letter assigned to each city. As the provincial capital, Xi'an naturally gets Shaan A; Tongchuan is Shaan B; Baoji Shaan C; Xianyang Shaan D; Weinan Shaan E; Hanzhong Shaan F, located in the southern mountainous area; Ankang Shaan G in the south; Shangluo Shaan H; Yan'an Shaan J, close to Shanxi; Yulin Shaan K in the north; additionally, the Yangling Demonstration Zone uses Shaan V, which has quite a few agricultural areas. These codes were fixed early on based on administrative divisions, making it easier for law enforcement and highway toll collection to identify a vehicle's origin. When I drive long distances in Shaanxi, I can guess where a car is from just by looking at the license plate. If it's for cargo or tourism, knowing the codes in advance can save some trouble—for example, being aware of restricted driving times for out-of-town vehicles. Remembering the codes for major cities is enough, especially Xi'an's Shaan A, which is the most common.
