Since 1950, the number of letters and digits has been used through different ways by each department. Each column provides precise elements, usefull for dating a specific French plate. Associated with pages 1950 to 2000,
Column I gives the first series that went up 999 (3 to 4 digits) with the date. When the series reaches ZZ, the maximum number of digits is back to three (for instance 9999 ZZ 92 → 11 to 999 AAA 92)
Column II gives the last issuing of the serial numbers 10 and department code due to the regulation text "Circulaire Poniatowski" by 22 October 1976 which has cancelled the use of the serial numbers 1 to 10 for the normal series (not for the series W, WW and TT). The text indicates also that the serial number could not be the same as the department code (no 75 MHG 75)
Column III indicates the last number issued with the letter U, to avoid a confusion with V. Only letters O and I have always being omitted to avoid confusion with digits 0 and 1. In Paris and other surrounding departments, the letter Q has been temporarily omitted, between 1974 and 1993 (see column V)
Column IV gives the omitted part of series during the introduction of computerization (mainly in the 1980s). The last number or numbers on the registers are separated by a line from the first computerized number
Column V gives all other omitted series or part of series for each department (three digits between brackets), for different reasons : historical reasons for SA and SS, insulting aspect for KK, PD, QQ, VC and WC or other unknown reasons. D, W, TT and WW series are always reserved for administration, garage or provisional registrations
Column VI gives the last number issued in the FNI on 13 October 2009 at 4:00pm when the SIV fully succeeded to the former system
