How about a fancy number plate?

About 300 unique vehicle and motorcycle number plates are up for grabs in the 25th online auction of the Licensing Agency at Roads and Transport Authority (RTA). The fancy number plates span a variety of codes, including M, N, L, K and O on March 25.

The registration for the three-day auction started on March 18 and will continue until the day of the auction. Mohammed Abdul Karim Nimaat, Director of Vehicles Licensing, RTA Licensing Agency, said the online auction commands attention from various sectors of the community since it ensures “comfort, transparency and fun” in the selection of preferred number plates without the hassles of waiting or losing time and effort.

“We will spare no effort to meet their needs and requirements by organising such auctions on a regular basis every year.” He said the online auction covers a wide range of unique numbers including 4-digit and 5-digit vehicle plates along with distinctive motorcycle plates, which will attract number plate aficionados and ensure privacy and significant positive interaction when they select their fancy number plates.

“The auction is bound to be popular with avant-gardes and will create a highly competitive and exciting atmosphere,” Nimaat said.

The participation mechanism warrants interested parties to create accounts on RTA’s website www.rta.ae. They should own a vehicle registered in Dubai, besides depositing Dh5,000 as an insurance, which can be recovered by unsuccessful bidders.
