Get Ready, Basic White Vehicle Number Plates Starting June 2022

JAKARTA - The policy on the use of white-based vehicle number plates will be implemented. It is planned that the implementation process will begin in June 2022.

"Hopefully this will be as soon as possible. Could it be in June? Yes. Anyway, this year it is a white plate," said Director General of the National Police Korlantas, Brigadier General Yusri Yunus when confirmed, Wednesday, May 18.

The transition of vehicle number plates with a black to white base will be carried out in stages.

In the process, it will prioritize vehicles that have entered the 5-year tax payment. So, the change can be done.

"Not all of them, only vehicles that change plates every five years, are the same as new vehicles. So, gradually this is the white plate," said Yusri.

Meanwhile, for vehicles that still use number plates with a black base color, Yusri continued, there is no need to worry and fear that they will be ticketed. This is because the black plate is still valid until its validity period expires.

"There is no regional priority," said Yusri.
