Which region does the license plate 'Yan' belong to?
1 Answers
Currently, there is no license plate that starts with 'Yan'. The first character of a license plate number is a Chinese character, representing the abbreviation of the province where the vehicle is registered. For example, Sichuan is represented by 'Chuan', Beijing by 'Jing', Chongqing by 'Yu', and Shanghai by 'Hu'. The second character of the license plate is an English letter, representing the code of the prefecture-level city where the vehicle is located. 'A' stands for the provincial capital, 'B' for the second-largest city in the province, 'C' for the third-largest city, and so on. Fuel-powered vehicles use a five-digit license plate number, with Arabic numerals ranging from 0 to 9 (a total of ten digits) and English letters from A to Z (a total of 26 letters). Before obtaining a formal license plate, vehicles use temporary license plates issued by the vehicle management office. Unlike formal license plates, temporary plates have geographical and time restrictions.
