The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has clarified that Kenyans cannot reserve future ordinary vehicle registration numbers. Instead, interested individuals can apply for unique combinations through the Special Plate application process as a new series nears release.

• Motorists cannot directly book future number plates before a series is officially activated.
• The NTSA advises waiting until or just before a new series begins to apply for a Special Plate.
• Customised number plates with unique phrases can cost approximately Ksh1,000,000 to apply for.
