History
First issuedMay 11, 1915 (1915-05-11)
(pre-state plates from May 11, 1909 through May 10, 1915)

The U.S. state of Utah first required its residents to register their motor vehicles in 1909. Registrants provided their own license plates for display until 1915, when the state began to issue plates.[1]

As of 2024, plates are issued by the Utah State Tax Commission through its Division of Motor Vehicles. Front and rear plates are required for most classes of vehicles, while only rear plates are required for motorcycles and trailers. The front plate requirement will be lifted for passenger vehicles on January 1, 2025.[2]

Passenger baseplates

[edit]

1915 to 1967

[edit]

In 1956, the United States, Canada, and Mexico came to an agreement with the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, the Automobile Manufacturers Association and the National Safety Council that standardized the size for license plates for vehicles (except those for motorcycles) at 6 inches (15 cm) in height by 12 inches (30 cm) in width, with standardized mounting holes.[3] The 1954 (dated 1955) issue was the first Utah license plate that complied with these standards.

Revalidated for 1969, 1970, 1971 and 1972 with stickers. After KK 9999 was issued in 1970, the serial format continued with only the letters L, M, N, P, R, S, T, V and W used.
1973 Black on reflective white; "UTAH 73" at bottom none ABC 123 AAA 001 to approximately HDH 999 Three-letter series used a split-alphabet system, with each letter advancing A, B, C, D, E, F, H, J, K (block 1), or L, M, N, P, R, S, T, V, W (block 2). Progression was as follows: all three letters in block 1, then first letter in block 2 and last two letters in block 1, then first two letters in block 2 and last letter in block 1, then all three letters in block 2, and finally first two letters in block 1 and last letter in block 2.

On the 1974–78 variant, two different designs of beehive were used - one rounded, the other pointed.

All variants are still currently revalidated.

1985–90 Blue on white with skier graphic Greatest Snow on Earth 123 ABC 001 AAA to 999 DWW Awarded "Plate of the Year" for best new license plate of 1986 by the Automobile License Plate Collectors Association, the first and, to date, only time Utah has been so honored. Letters G, U, X, Y and Z added to serials in late 1992, beginning with the FPG series.[4]

Plates with the bolder dies have been spotted using the 'M' and 'W' dies being stamped incorrectly. In this image,[5] the 'W' die in V62 0BW was stamped with the 'M' die, but it's upside down to read as a 'W'. This has been spotted on a variety of serial runs throughout the years. For the Ski Utah! plates, certain plates in the 001 LAA - 999 LZZ series have been spotted with the 'W' dies incorrectly stamped. For reference, the 'W' die looks like this[6]

1990–93 As above, but with narrower serial dies 001 EAA to approximately 999 GPY

Issued concurrently with the 1985 Ski base, first as an extra-fee base and then as a no-cost base from 1997. The first letter in the serial progressed backwards (so 999 ZZZ was followed by 001 YAA, 999 YZZ was followed by 001 XAA, and so on).

Certain plates in the X-SW series have been spotted with the 'W' die stamped correctly and incorrectly.

The X-UW, X-WD and V-BW series have been spotted with the 'W' die incorrectly stamped.

With the updated North Carolina dies introduced in 2023, Ski and Arch plates have been seen reverting back to the old dies in random sequences throughout the G-Yx series and T-Hx series. Approximately G00 1YW-G34 9YW, G00 1YX-G99 9YZ, and T00 1HZ-T84 9HZ were seen using the previous dies.

In the 1A2BC and 1ABC2 formats, letter combinations begin with the numbers 00 instead of 01 (so 9AAA9 is followed by 0AAB0, 9AAB9 is followed by 0AAC0 and so on).

Optional plates

[edit]

Utah currently offers over 60 optional license plates.[11] With the exception of the Amateur Radio Operator & Historic Black & White plates, all use the same serial format – originally 1234A (with a high of 4285U), then A123B (A001A to M999Z), and now 12AB3 (00AA1 to 99FB9) alongside the generic disabled plate.

Plates using the bolder dies have been spotted using the 'M' and 'W' dies being stamped incorrectly. In this image,[5] the 'W' die in V62 0BW was stamped with the 'M' die, but it's upside down to read as a 'W'. This has been spotted on a variety of serial runs throughout the years. For reference, the 'W' die looks like this.[6] For optional plates, the B###W, C###W, and D###W series have been spotted with the 'W' die stamped incorrectly.

With the updated North Carolina dies introduced in 2023, optional plates still follow the 12AB3 serial format as of now, starting at 00FD1 to 49GD3 (as of October 30, 2024). Optional
