Vehicle license plates of Switzerland, are composed of a two-letter code for the canton and a number with up to 6 digits.

The rear plates also display two shields with the flags of Switzerland and the respective canton.

In 1987, the optional long format for rear plates, which had been abolished in 1972, was reintroduced.

In some cantons, when vehicle license number plates are returned and retired, they are made available again after a certain time.

Low serial numbers are reserved for ambassadors or the head of an organization and their deputies.
