"Alternatively, the client can set a budget to know the numbers offered against that fixed amount. The customer can also search for plates in a specific number pattern, such as starting and ending with a specific number. This smart system can nominate personalized numbers for the client, who has a traffic file with RTA, corresponding to his or her date of birth, mobile number .etc. The customer can also screen numbers similar to the ones already owned but in other codes. It also enables the customer to retrieve old number retained in the traffic file or registered against a vehicle of the customer," explained Al Marzooki.

"Some plates are offered for direct purchase through the system, and others are subject to an RTA's approval such as requesting a plate with a specific number in order to communicate the approval to the customer who has to complete the procedures of owning the plate. The service does not require a deposit unless the customer has had previously violated the rules of buying plates such as the failure to settle a financial obligation of owning a plate within the fixed time limit i.e. 10 days from the date of issuing approval.
