Vehicle registration plates (commonly known as number plates in the UEKN) are used in the United El Kadsreian Nations to identify motor vehicles. Every vehicle registration plate contained a unique registration mark embossed on a metal plate. It was compulsory for motor vehicles to display the plates on both sides.

pre-1970
Number plates have been issued in New Japan (later the Sentanese Empire) since 1906. The first plates were owner-provided and never standarized, but they usually had the city of registration and a sequential number. In 1916, specifications for number plates were introduced. Those plates had white characters on black and the city of registration on the top. The format was later inherited by the Republic of Mahri and the Republic of El Kadsre.

In 1958, the Republic of El Kadsre was partitioned into West El Kadsre, East El Kadsre, and North El Kadsre. While North El Kadsre and East El Kadsre continued the legacy of Sentanese number plates, West El Kadsre's format changed to two letters and 4 digits.

1970-1974
In 1969, the newly-formed Vlokozu Union standarized the dimensions, colors, and formats across all administrative divisions. Those plates had the same design as British number plates.

The first Vlokozuian vehicle registration plates were issued in 1970, consisting of a one- or two-letter code followed by a letter and a sequence number from 0001 to 9999. The code indicated the local authority in whose area the vehicle was registered. These were allocated based on the name of the local authority. The larger cities and regions were generally allocated one-letter codes (e.g.  for El Kadsre City,   for Abeta,   for Fusa,   for Glonisla,   for Capulco,   for Screencold, and   for Line). The format ended in 1974 because most of the registration codes had little or no representations of the districts of the Vlokozu Union, and there were too few available combinations for the larger authorities.

1974-1989
On 1 January 1974, the Vlokozu Union announced that a replacement standard would replace the previous one. The codes were completely changed, with the first letter representing the region of the Vlokozu Union and the second one representing the district. The format was also changed to AABBB ###, with BBB ### being a sequential serial number composed of 3 letters and 3 numbers. The first letter of the regional code varied depending on the region: In 1977, the Vlokozu Union invaded the Vicnoran Kingdom and it was allocated the Z prefix.
