Vehicle registration plates of Namibia are yellow fluorescent metal plates with imprints in black. The standard version is uniform throughout the country, and carries one of the following forms:
| N 1 A | N 1 AB |
| N 12 A | N 12 AB |
| N 123 A | N 123 AB |
| N 1234 A | N 1234 AB |
| N 12345 A | N 12345 AB |
| N 123-456 A | N 123-456 AB |
The first letter is always "N" for Namibia. The last one or two letters indicate the town or region the car originates from. In between, numbers are issued sequentially within each region, starting with single-digit numbers, and increasing in length as required. The vast majority of vehicles are registered in the capital, Windhoek, and require six digits; most other regions currently use three or four digits.
Since 2007, personalised number plates are available at an extra fee. Such plates may carry up to seven alphanumerical characters, followed by the Namibian Flag and the letters NA. They also differ in color and material, the personalised plates are made from acrylic white plastic and have light blue characters.[1]
Government vehicles use dark green number plates with white imprints. As with ordinary number plates, numbers are issued sequentially within each region, starting with single-digit numbers, and increasing in length as required. The Government vehicle plates are prefixed with the following letters:
- GRN - Government vehicles
- JUD -Judiciary of Namibia
- NDF - Namibia Defence Force
- POL - Police
- NCS - Namibian Correctional Service
- LNA - Legislature National Assembly (since 2024)[2]
- LNC - Legislature National Council (since 2024)[2]
