Pricing - Types of Personalized Number Plates

  • Now that you have decided to get your Gauteng number plates personalized, your Number One choice to assist you with this process is, of course, Motormouth!

    Firstly, whichever type of number plate you decide to take, you need to know that the car which is to receive the personalized number plates must already be registered in Gauteng, and you should have a registration document for that car. If the car is being financed, and the car is not yet paid off, then the holder of that registration document is probably the finance company or institution who has financed your car, and they can be approached to fax you a copy of the registration document. Complete the application form on our website with the details needed to get your specialized number plate.

ORN - Ordinary Registration Number

This type of registration has 3 letters followed by 3 numbers (or vice versa), always followed by the registered Provincial code – i.e. GP. It is generally the case nowadays that the numbers first option is more readily available that the letters first option.

The cost of an ORN registration is R1995. The cost is a once-off cost and is payable by any of the following methods:

  • Direct EFT or bank deposit from you
  • Credit card payment method coming soon! Then you will need to supply the following credit card information:
    • Name of Card Holder
    • Card Number
    • Expiry Date
    • CVV number (last 3 digits on the back of the credit card)
  • The other option you may have is to go into your nearest FNB and do a credit card payment there using the FNB details supplied on the Motormouth website. Their normally friendly and helpful staff will assist you. Remember to include your reference.

Once your choice of ORN registration number is decided upon and we have obtained confirmation for you from the licensing department that it is available, we will need the following documents from you:

  • Fully Completed order form downloaded from our Website
  • Copy of the ID for the owner of the car which is to have the specialised number plate
  • Copy of the original Registration Document for the car which is to have the specialised number plates
  • Proof of payment once the EFT has been done. Please include a reference, e.g. 123 ONE GP

Once we have confirmed that your choice is available and we have everything requested, we go and register the specialised number plate for you. With ORN number plates we will deliver the new registration document/s plus the number plates to you by driver or by courier. Once you have received these, you need to go to your local licensing department and get them to LINK the ORN registration to your car and receive a windscreen display disc to be placed on your windscreen. This step is a mandatory legal requirement, and costs approximately R200.00 per number plate registration. For this step you will need to take with you:

  • The new personalised registration document that was couriered to you with your number plates
  • Completed form ALV
  • Your ID
  • Your copy of your registration document
  • R200 cash

This requirement to link your personalised registration to your car plus the items you need to do it is the same for all types of personalised registration.

Once the linking process is complete install your personalised number plates and…. Happy Driving!
