Offences may result in a €60 Fixed Charge Penalty Notice per plate

Kildare's Naas Roads Policing Unit recently stopped a vehicle displaying non-conforming registration plates.

Non-conforming Irish registration plates include those that:

  • Use custom or non-standard fonts

  • Have incorrect sizes, colours, or spacing

  • Omit the EU flag or “IRL” identifier

  • Are designed to defeat ANPR systems

An Garda Síochána Kildare remind drivers that each non-regulation, missing, or obscured plate can result in a €60 Fixed Charge Notice per plate.

All registration plates must meet Irish format and visibility standards.
