FAQs
Are your custom number plates road-legal in the UK?
Yes! Our custom number plates are 100% DVLA-compliant and meet UK regulations. All plates follow the legal standards for font, size, and reflectivity.
What is the difference between legal number plates and show plates?
Legal number plates meet DVLA standards and are suitable for road use. Show plates, on the other hand, are for exhibitions, car shows, and private collections and are not road-legal.
