This transcript the so-called "thieves" numbers will be a guide for you, with whom it is better not to compete on the road. In addition, this article will debunk the myths about those vehicles, whose numbers actually mean absolutely nothing.
Types of license plates
The vehicle number is unique. registration code, similar to what is given to all citizens with a passport ( an identification number), which corresponds to the registration of the car in the territory of the state. It consists of a specific number set and various variations of twelve letters. They line up in a certain order. In order to correctly determine whether a car belongs to Russia, the flag of the Russian Federation inscribed in a rectangle, the word RUS and the code group of the region in which it is registered are displayed on the right side of the number. Such rules for the design of car license plates are fully consistent with GOST. The letters indicate the series, the numbers indicate the number.
Interesting to know! The very first numbers of special significance appeared in the USSR in 1965 in the city of Leningrad. It was a limited edition of twenty-five issues. These numbers were intended for the top of the CPSU branch of Leningrad. Then they were not officially provided special numbers for mere mortals. But all kinds of "thieves" numbers could already be obtained by special order through good friends or money.
Can be distinguished whole line special car numbers. Of course, among those there are undoubtedly thieves' numbers, and deciphering the letters will give you the first idea of \u200b\u200bthe people in these vehicles.
Federal.
Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.
Ministry of Defense of Russia.
diplomatic missions.
trading companies.
Urban passenger transport.
transit signs.
Special numbers for semi-trailers and trailers.
Such numbers began to be in great demand even in times Soviet Union. But the global demand for thieves' numbers is rooted in the middle of those same "dashing" nineties. It was then that new license plates were introduced for three numbers and three letters, which replaced the old black and white "union" numbers.
For someone special meaning has a duplication of the regional code on the license plate. Someone's fetish is three identical numbers or letters. But the most elite numbers are those in which one letter and one number are duplicated three times. Deciphering the thieves' numbers on a car overtaking you will help you decide who is better to miss by changing lanes.
As soon as new license plates were introduced, aesthetes-lovers of everything beautiful, including car numbers, immediately appeared. But in order to get such, it was necessary to have good connections in the traffic police traffic police. Employees of this particular organization were engaged in MREO. Today, everything is much easier. If the wallet is tightly packed, the problem is solved almost instantly.
At any search engine ask a request that interests you regarding the acquisition of difficult numbers, and there are already people there. And believe me, there are many ready to provide such services for a fee. In the vastness of the Russian "black" market, numbers with the same numbers, for example, 777, will be valued at tens of thousands of rubles.
Did you know? The most expensive license plate in the world was sold in the UAE in 2008 for $14,200,000. This is number "1".
There are also numbers that cannot be purchased even for a lot of money on the "black" market. These are numbers with a certain letter code. Such is assigned exclusively to a certain state structure or departmental organization. And there are very few such types of rooms, about a hundred. You can buy them only if you have a big pull in certain state structures or serious connections.

In Russia, a license plate means more than just a plate on a car. From it you can sometimes find out what status the owner of the car has.
In 2019, AMR numbers in Moscow have practically lost their thieves' value, many just want to get a beautiful combination of letters and numbers.
What are car numbers
In Russia, most state numbers for a car are made according to the rules of GOST R 50577-93, which was adopted in 1993 and has not changed much since then.
The GOST states that the numbers of military, route, diplomatic vehicles, as well as trailers, motorcycles and special equipment may differ from the standard one.
In addition to official differences, citizens came up with combinations of letters and numbers indicating the privileged position of the owner.
Standard numbers are printed with a combination of 3 letters and 3 numbers, which cannot be the same as an already existing number.
The numbers mean the number itself, and the letters indicate the character series. The law allows the use of 12 Cyrillic letters, which coincide with the Latin alphabet.
October 15, 2013 in Russia has changed the regulations for the registration of vehicles. The new rules established that when changing the owner of a car, it is allowed to keep the old license plate (except for obsolete Soviet numbers) if it is in good condition.
There should be no cracks, dents or abrasions on the sign, numbers and letters are easy to read. If you want to save a damaged number, you can make a duplicate in the traffic police. In 2019, instead of registration and deregistration, citizens undergo a re-registration procedure, which allows them to keep rare numbers.
Issuance procedure
State signs are issued when registering a new car in the traffic police. Most drivers get a random combination of numbers and letters that they can't influence.
However, among some drivers, a beautiful combination, for which they are willing to pay, is considered important.
WITH There are 2 options to get a special number:
- through acquaintances in the traffic police during the initial registration of a car, but this method is prohibited by law;
- buy a car with beautiful numbers from another owner.
There are several sites on the Internet that sell the numbers of the Federal Security Service, the presidential administration, etc. Such signs cost several tens of millions of rubles and appear quite rarely.
When the driver buys numbers, you need to approach the insurer and update the information in the OSAGO policy. Otherwise, it will be invalid.
What does AMP mean?
Thieves signs appeared in the Soviet Union. The first wave of beautiful numbers began in 1939, when Red Army vehicles received numbers with the letter A and could drive through territories closed to others without presenting documents. Government vehicles received MA marks.
In Moscow and in Russia as a whole, the most thieves and expensive is considered special series AMP97. These numbers were formed after the replacement of signs with the Russian flag. They cannot be bought, only rented.
AMR is put on company cars the most prominent officials, for example, deputies of the State Duma, officials of the FSO, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the RF IC, the Federation Council, etc. If there is such a sign on the car, the traffic police inspectors know that high-ranking officials are sitting in the car.
The second most prestigious number is AMP77, it is more realistic to buy it for money ordinary drivers. These cars in the past belonged to the Central Administration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, now the cars have been transferred to private owners.
They rarely appear on sale, there are many buyers. The number AMP77 costs from a million rubles and more. The most expensive is the A0 ** MP777 series, that is, the first 100 cars produced with these signs.
The remaining AMR numbers (except 77) cannot be bought without a close acquaintance with high-ranking officials and other government officials.
Deciphering thieves numbers
In Russia, there are still combinations of numbers printed in an edition of up to 100 pieces, which are especially valued among wealthy drivers:
| From A001MP97 to A136MP97 | The Government, the Federation Council, State Duma etc. Each state apparatus owns no more than 50 cars with such numbers |
| From A137MP97 to A201MP97 | They belong to the Prosecutor General's Office and the Central Electoral Commission. There are less than 70 such numbers |
| From A203MP97 to A369MP97 | Assigned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, now private owners have numbers (about 170 pieces) |
| A362MR97 | Owned by Yu.M. Luzhkov, who travels accompanied by a traffic police car with numbers A18 ** 99 |
| From A370MP97 to A400MP97 | The cars belong to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the Federal Penitentiary Service, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other federal agencies. Numbers less than 20 pieces |
| From A371 to A37497 | Assigned to the Ministry of Emergency Situations, one of the rooms belonged to Mikhalkov, now bought out by a private owner |
| From A401MP97 to A600MP97. | The numbers belong to the directors of the executive authorities in different regions Russia. There are less than 90 such signs in Moscow. Another 90 belong to the heads of executive power in nearby regions of the country |
| From A401MP97 to A489MP97 | The signs belong to the governors of various regions of the country. There are only 4 of them in Moscow and the region, these numbers are not available to private drivers for any money. |
| From A501MP97 to A589MP97 | The numbers are assigned to the largest speakers of the country. There are less than 85 of them in Russia, most of them are located in Moscow. Such signs are prohibited for sale. |
| From A601MP97 to A697MP07 | The signs are designed for the federal structures of the country. The majority belongs to the Courier Service, the Ministry of Turnover and Rosfinmonitoring also have it. Less than 100 issues released |
| From A698MP97 to A999MP97 | Numbers from Rosstat, the Federal Security Service and Rosatom. There are more than 200 of them, so they are the cheapest and most available on the market. |
How to get a nice number
To buy a rare AMR number, a citizen must have a large amount of money. In 2015, the number of the government series was put up, for which they demanded 15 million rubles. Badge A082MR97 belonged to the head of the Federal Agency for Fisheries.
It was not sold separately from the car, but together with the used Audi A8 L, for which it is registered. The agency decided to put the car up for sale almost immediately after the law allowed to keep the numbers when changing ownership. It was bought almost instantly, the owner's details were not disclosed.
There are many offers on the Internet for the sale of rare or thieves, but it is almost impossible to find the AMP sign. For example, mirror figures in Moscow cost about 30 thousand, repeated figures can be found for 100 thousand.
The more beautiful the combination of letters, the more expensive the final cost will be. The scheme of sale is always the same: rare signs are installed on old cheap cars, formally a citizen buys Soviet car, but in fact receives unusual state numbers.
Gradually, more and more thieves' numbers appear on the black market. Prices for AMR start at 2 million rubles and are quickly sorted out, but you can contact the dealer and find out about the available combinations of letters and numbers. AMR can only be rented, you cannot buy such numbers.
The car number contains certain information about its owner.. It makes it possible to determine the region and the status of the owner of the car.
When buying, every car enthusiast wants beautiful memorable numbers for his vehicle. But they can be remembered not only by numbers, but also by letters.
A regular registration number contains three letters and three numbers in the main part. Still, more attention is paid to the numbers.
But no less relevant is the question of what the letters on the numbers of cars in Russia mean.
The symbols on the license plates of a car or other vehicle are the main registration information, which represents the region and mode of transport data necessary to identify the driver.
If at least one character is missing on the license plate, or the numbers cannot be read for some other reason, then the owner vehicle will be punished with a certain fine.
Numbers are set according to the rules traffic, they spelled out the algorithm and timing of installation. Place for location registration number is located on a substrate that is specially installed on the bumper.
Positioning in any other conspicuous place is considered a violation, which entails a fine. It is important that the license plates are not upside down.
The usual number is conditionally divided into 2 parts. On the left are three letters and three numbers. The first is a letter, then three numbers, followed by the remaining two characters.
In accordance with GOST R 50577-93 - three letters in the number are a series, and numbers are a number registration plate
. Russian license plates use only 12 letters of the Russian alphabet.
These are exactly the letters that have an analogue in the Latin alphabet. Among them are A, B, E, K, M, H, O, R, C, T, U, X. C right side letters and numbers are also depicted, but the letters are no longer Russian.
The numbers indicate the region of the Russian Federation where the car is registered, there may be 2 or 3. And the letters "RUS" in the car number mean belonging to the country in which it is registered.
These are all signs that are available in a regular room. In addition to them, there is only a figure with the colors of the flag of the Russian Federation.
Registration plates can have one of 5 colors. Some of them speak about the privileges of a motorist and carry information about belonging to the divisions of the state structure.
In addition to the above, there are license plates that are used by people and organizations close to power in the Russian Federation.
These numbers often give the car an advantage on the road. Operational FSB vehicles may have different state registration plates.
The decoding of license plates should begin with the FSO RF series - EKH99. It appeared instead of EKX77, and EKX177 was used when the summit was held in St. Petersburg, after which it was handed over to the warehouse.
The EKX97 series belongs to the FSO and other departments that have the appropriate immunity.
Vehicles of the FSB and the UD of the President
One part of the signs from the XKX77 series is used by the FSB, and wealthy people always wanted to have the other on their cars, so it was sold.
Cars from the Office of the President use license plates from the AOO77, MOO77, BOO77 and COO77 series.
A vehicle with a beacon indicates that a special postman from the State Fiscal Service of the Russian Federation is moving on it. These cars do not have advantages on the roads.
The series numbers AKP177, EKR177, VKR177 and KKR177 mean belonging to those close to the authorities. These cars used to have state license plates. of blue color.
Numbers of the EP177 series are members of the State Duma.
After the blue license plates were introduced, the Ministry of Internal Affairs partially sold out the numbers AMP77, KMP77, BMP77, OMP77, MMP77, TMP77 and UMP77.
Only a few of them remained under the control of this department.
PMP77 - license plates of the prosecutor's office. Series AMO77 - almost completely used by the Moscow City Hall.
Deciphering thieves' numbers on a car highlights people who are in power and the relevant state structures.
Numbers such as HAA99, CAA99, TAA99 and XAA99 are also considered thieves. Their main difference lies in the fact that both FSB or research institute employees and a cool private trader have these signs.
Numbers play a big role. Beautiful numbers can be called those that have the same numbers.
The most popular and sought after are the three sevens. After all, 7 is considered a lucky number. License plates that begin with two zeros are also popular - 003, 002 and the like. As well as mirrors, for example, 101, 202.
But they look very nice and stand out among a large number cars, vehicles, license plates of which contain three identical letters - TTT, UUU, XXX.
The exception is thieves, they are not used by ordinary citizens. Any other identical numbers are not considered thieves. It’s just that such license plates are not issued at the MREO, but are sold.
Prices beautiful numbers different - 3000 rubles and more. For such an amount, you can buy the simplest mirrors or just an extraordinary simple number.
For example, you can hang the number 308 on a Peugeot 308 for free, but practice proves that no one will give it away just like that. The same awaits those who want to use BMW numbers that match the model.
The price of the same figures starts from 15 thousand rubles, taking into account registration with a commercial MREO. In 2019, the prices for the same letters have increased greatly, and together with beautiful numbers, they are practically unattainable for a middle-class citizen.
But it should always be taken into account that the cool numbers will not eliminate all possible troubles. After all, certification plays a major role.
It is best to always follow the rules of the road. Not only your own health and life depends on this, but also the lives of other people involved in road traffic.
Thus, the combination of license plates is built according to the principle - 3 letters and three numbers. The letters on the car numbers are deciphered as a number plate series, the numbers are the code of the region where the car is registered.
In addition, it should be borne in mind that the meaning of some letters can be radically different in different regions of the country.
Often our attention on the road is caught by “beautiful” license plates. They are usually called thieves, because getting this can hardly be called a happy accident. Coinciding or mirror letters and numbers, as well as combinations endowed with special meaning. Everyone probably dealt with a kind of decoding of such “thieves” numbers, but in fact, many of them have a very specific background and can give a certain signal to traffic police officers and other road users. It is impossible to give an unambiguous decoding to all license plates, so the list contains the most common of them.
