Export series
These export series are black on white and are fabricated locally where a vehicle is puchased and ready to get exported.
Some companies use plastic letters or simply hand write the registration on a plate.

New export series 2006.

6=6|M=2006|M=July|8=8th day|S=25|1=10 so, it's 2516th registration of July 8, 2006.
By the way I was standing next to the numberplate machine at the automart and noticed that after 9MM R99 comes 0MM RB0, then 1MM RB0. And the R means 1000.

Year letters used on second position: B D F G H J M N P R
B=1990, 2000, 2010 etc.
D=1991, 2001, 2011 etc.
F=1992, 2002, 2012 etc.
G=1993, 2003, 2013 etc.
H=1994, 2004, 2014 etc.
J=1995, 2005, 2015 etc.
M=1996, 2006, 2016 etc.
N=1997, 2007, 2017 etc.
P=1998, 2008, 2018 etc.
R=1999, 2009, 2019 etc.

The former registration system is explained below:

4=serial number (ones)
B=year of issue (see list)
F=month of issue (see list)
M=day of issue (see list)
3=serial number (hundreds)
2=serial number (tens)

LIST

(YEARS)     (MONTHS)         (DAYS)
B = 1990    B = January      1=1 	I=17
D = 1991    D = February     2=2 	J=18
F = 1992    F = March        3=3 	K=19
G = 1993    G = April        4=4 	L=20
H = 1994    H = May          5=5 	M=21
J = 1995    J = June         6=6 	N=22
M = 1996    M = July         7=7 	Q=23
N = 1997    N = August       8=8 	P=24
P = 1998    P = September    9=9 	R=25
R = 1999    R = October      0=10 	S=26
B = 2000    T = November     B=11  	T=27
D = 2001    V = December     C=12 	V=28
F = 2002                     D=13 	W=29
G = 2003                     F=14 	X=30
H = 2004                     G=15 	Z=31
J = 2005		     H=16
So, for example I will explane the plate above:

4=4 B=1990 F=March M=21st day 3=300 2=20. This is the 324th plate of March 21, 1990.

There are also codelists to calculate the date of expiring, but I left that out to keep it simple. These plates are usually valid for a month orso.

More plates to play with!
