UK Vehicle Registration Plate generator

The UK Vehicle Registration Plate generator creates unique vehicle registration numbers used in the United Kingdom. The generator can be used for identification, taxation, and regulatory purposes.

Note

If you select United Kingdom from the Country-specific data list on the Options page of the Data Generator Project Properties wizard, the UK Vehicle Registration Plate generator will be applied to columns that meet the matching rules, replacing the default (United States) generator.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
UK Vehicle Registration Plate	DH91MPR, KS46TGS, …	character varying character text	UK

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column whose name starts with ‘Size’ and ends with ‘Unit’, with any or no characters in between, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The generator produces data based on a regular expression. Since it is built on the RegExp generator, see Regular Expression generator to customize settings and understand the correct usage of syntax.
