What does a license plate ending with 'Shi' indicate?

[ElizaLynn]

A license plate ending with 'Shi' indicates a vehicle belonging to a foreign consulate in China. The identification method for license plate color types is as follows: blue represents ordinary vehicle plates; yellow is for agricultural vehicles and engineering vehicles; green indicates urban special-purpose vehicle plates; white denotes military or public security vehicle plates; black is used for foreign-related vehicles such as embassies, consulates, and foreign-funded enterprises. License plates are panels hung at the front and rear of vehicles, typically made of aluminum, sheet iron, plastic, or paper, bearing the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information. License plates serve as numbering and information registration for vehicles, with their primary function being to identify the vehicle's region of registration through the plate number, and to trace the vehicle's owner and registration details based on the plate.
