If you tow a trailer that obscures your vehicle’s rear number plate, you are legally required to display a duplicate plate on the back of the trailer. We supply road-legal trailer number plates in all styles – standard, 3D gel and 4D – with same day dispatch.

Do Trailers Need Number Plates?

Yes. UK law requires that your vehicle’s registration number is visible from the rear at all times. When towing a trailer, caravan, horsebox, boat trailer or any other towable unit, the rear plate of your towing vehicle is usually hidden. You must display a matching rear number plate on the trailer showing the registration of the towing vehicle.

What Are the Rules?

  • The trailer plate must show the registration of the towing vehicle, not a separate trailer registration.
  • The plate must be illuminated at night – most trailers have a built-in plate light.
  • The plate must meet BS AU 145e standards.
  • Only a rear (yellow) plate is required on the trailer.

  • 4D plates – Bold laser-cut acrylic characters.
