Overview

• The DVLA has added 436 new character combinations to its blacklist for the 2025 '75' number plates, raising the total banned combinations to 646.
• Banned sequences include references to Nazi atrocities (e.g., AU75 WTS), violence (LE75 KLL), drug use (LE75 LSD), and politically charged messages about Brexit and the EU (e.g., EU75 OUT).
• Wildcard bans extend restrictions to any plates ending in censored sequences, such as **75 HAG, increasing the number of prohibited plates beyond the listed specifics.
• The blacklist, obtained via a Freedom of Information request by private plate supplier Regtransfers, reflects the DVLA's annual effort to prevent offensive or unsuitable registrations.
• The new '75' plates, incorporating these exclusions, will be available starting September 1, 2025, with enforcement of the bans to follow.
