  AB-123-CD

  Two Latin letters, three digits and two Latin letters (AA-123-AA), embossed, with a blue strip on the left carrying the national flag and GE. Introduced on 1 September 2014. The letters carry no regional meaning: the territory letters of the 1993 system (A Tbilisi, B Adjara, D Kutaisi and so on) ran out in 2004 and were dropped. Buyers may choose the letter combination for a fee, and the Service Agency sells the paid series. Single-line plates are 520 × 110 mm; a two-line 280 × 180 mm size exists for some imported vehicles.
