Do you own two vehicles of the same vehicle class that you don't need to use at the same time?
Then the interchangeable license plate might be of interest to you.
What are the advantages of the interchangeable license plate?
If your motor vehicle liability insurance offers a cheaper rate for the registration of the two vehicles with interchangeable license plates compared to regular registrations, you can save on insurance premiums. You should clarify this in advance with your motor vehicle liability insurance.
Both vehicles must be fully taxed. There is no tax advantage.
The license plates
Both license plates consist of a common part, e.g., GM-TY 10,
and a vehicle-specific part, usually 1 and 2.
When combined, this results in the two license plates GM-TY 101 and GM-TY 102.
The vehicle-specific part of the plate remains on the respective vehicle.
The plates must have the same dimensions.
Both parts must always be securely mounted.
Attachment using adhesive tape, magnets, string, etc., is not permitted.
No personalized license plate is possible.
