Northern Cyprus civilian number plates are composed of 2 letters and 3 numbers, e.g. AB 123. Front plates are white, rear plates are yellow, such as in Southern Cyprus, but in Northern Cyprus both front and rear plates are bordered in red. They do not have any markers on the left hand side such as the blue EU strip or the flag of Northern Cyprus. Rental cars are red numberplates with black writing, it the form of ZHZ 123. Government vehicles (those belonging to the government and the council) are 3 lettered and 3 numbered, such as RHA 123. Taxis are 3 lettered and 3 numbered, similar to South Cyprus's civilian numberplates. Diplomatic vehicles are in the same format as civilian vehicles, only on a Green numberplate. The armed forces vehicles are purely numbers, on a small numberplate, such as 8012352.
Both sizes are available: 15×30 or 11×52 cm.

Famous quotes containing the word northern:
“Our ancestors were savages. The story of Romulus and Remus being suckled by a wolf is not a meaningless fable. The founders of every state which has risen to eminence have drawn their nourishment and vigor from a similar wild source. It was because the children of the Empire were not suckled by the wolf that they were conquered and displaced by the children of the northern forests who were.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
