Glossary: Trade Plates

Trade plates come in 2 Styles:

  • T1 for use on motorcycles, trailers, towed caravans
  • T2 for use on cars, trucks, tractors.

Trade plates are issued to motor vehicle dealers, manufacturers and assemblers for use on unregistered vehicles.

Trade plates are registered to the user, not the vehicle. For this reason, it is not possible to obtain vehicle details by querying a trade plate because no vehicle details are recorded against a trade plate.
