Replacement plates

Replacement EV Number Plates for Damaged, Lost or Worn Plates

Need to replace a damaged, lost or worn EV plate? We make like-for-like replacements in the correct legal format, using the same high-quality green flash from our range.

  • Replacing a damaged EV plate

    If an EV plate is cracked, faded or lost, order a new one with the green flash — a single front or rear plate, or a matching pair.

  • Replacing a lost front or rear plate

    Order just the one you've lost, in the size of the plate you're keeping.

  • Can we match your existing EV plate?

    We'll make your replacement in the same size with our green flash, in the style you choose. An exact match to another supplier's plate isn't guaranteed, as materials and finish vary between makers.

  • Printed, 3D, 4D or another finish

    Every style we make comes in this format: printed, 3D gel, 4D acrylic, 5D, Ghost or Bevel. You can change the finish without telling the DVLA, as long as the registration itself isn't changing.

Know the difference

What Are Green Flash EV Number Plates?

EV number plates carry a green flash — a green band at the left-hand side of the plate — showing the vehicle produces zero emissions at the tailpipe. Zero-emission vehicles in the UK have been able to display it since 8 December 2020.

Only zero-emission vehicles are eligible; hybrids and plug-in hybrids aren't. The flash is optional, and the rest of the plate follows the usual rules for characters, spacing, background and markings.

Sizes and options

EV Number Plate Sizes and Options

Standard size is 520mm × 111mm. Depending on your registration, shorter sizes
may also be available for this style — the builder will show what’s offered once
you enter your registration.

  • Standard Size

    520mm × 111mm. Shorter sizes may also be available for this style — the builder will show what's offered once you enter your registration.

  • Motorcycle Options

    The green flash may also be available on selected motorcycle formats — the builder will show what's currently offered for your registration.

  • Measuring for a Replacement

    Measure both your existing plate and the available mounting area on the car, since a plate that's the right size on paper still needs to fit the actual recess and fixing points.

Legal information

Yes, on a zero-emission vehicle, when the plate is made correctly: solid black characters at the legal size and spacing, on the correct reflective background, with the required supplier and British Standard markings, and the green flash at the left. Only zero-emission vehicles may display the flash.

This covers how the plate must be made and displayed. It’s a separate question from what a DVSA MOT tester checks — whether the characters are correctly formed, evenly spaced, secure and not obscured.
