[West]

Hi all, just out of curiousity ( cos' i just bought plates ), does japanese car has personalise plates?

Can i bring a pair out of the country as well?

They don't have personalized plates nlike AU. You can however choose the numbers (on a standard plate) for an extra fee AFAIK.

Officially you cannot take plates out of Japan. I went to the Licencing center in Kobe and was promptly told that all plates are recirculated back into the system and that even getting the aluminium screw cover things (on the back plate) are illegal to give out. They care about their jobs so they wouldn't change their minds no matter how much you want to pay.

Getting plates illegaly on the other hand...

Haha good question... actually no, because I've got an open ticket to go back to Japan anytime in the next 12 months, I feel as though I'm just a hop step and jump away from my old neighborhood... and besides, Japans not gonna change alot since I'm not there
