Common UAE wide number plate price checks
Low Digits - High Prices
Low digits often sit at the very top of the UAE number plate market. Because single- and double-digit plates are scarce and instantly recognizable, they're widely seen as status symbols — and a number plate valuation (also called a license plate or registration / reg plate valuation) will typically reflect that scarcity. In many cases, the lowest numbers can reach exceptionally high prices, and plates like "7" or "55" are often treated as trophy assets that rarely change hands. If you're buying or selling, it helps to run a price check to understand what a low-digit plate may be worth before you make a decision.
Round Numbers - Sharp Values
Clean, rounded numbers look premium and are among the most commonly searched patterns in the UAE. Numbers like 100, 500, 1000, or 5000 feel "complete" and memorable, which is why they often attract strong demand. In a UAE number plate valuation (also called a license plate or registration / reg plate valuation), round numbers can perform well because they're easy to recognize, easy to say, and visually clean on the plate. Many buyers choose them for personal branding, and others see them as a solid option if they're thinking about what a plate may be worth over time across all seven emirates.
Past Years - Future Gains
Years and meaningful dates are among the most frequently searched patterns when people look up a plate's value. Birth years like 1985, 1990, or 2000 add a personal touch while still keeping strong resale appeal, which is why they often show up in a number plate valuation or license plate / registration (reg) plate price check. Buyers also look for anniversary dates, graduation years, or other milestones that carry personal meaning — making these plates "worth it" for the right person. In the UAE market, year-based plates tend to stay in steady demand, especially popular decades like the 1980s and 1990s.
