Questions
What year is an SKV car plate?
The SKV series first opened for bidding in July 2015. It was the newest series for 2 months, until SKW in September 2015. So a car with an SKV plate was registered in July 2015 or later: a number can be bid for after its series opens, or kept from an older car, so the car can be newer than its plate, never older.
How old is a car with an SKV plate?
No older than 11 years and 4 months (in November 2026), counted from July 2015, when the series first opened for bidding. It can be younger: the plate only says when the number came out.
When does an SKV carโs COE end?
A COE lasts 10 years from registration, so a car registered in July 2015, when the series first opened for bidding, had its first COE run to about July 2025; one registered later, later still. So an SKV car still on the road has had its COE renewed for 5 or 10 more years at the Prevailing Quota Premium: see the latest COE prices and PQP, and the PARF and COE rebates for scrapping it.
What comes after SKV?
SKW, which first opened for bidding in September 2015, then SKX in October 2015. Before SKV came SKU (May 2015).
What letter does SKV 1234 end in?
SKV 1234 P. The last letter is a checksum worked out from the prefix and the number: SKV 1 B, SKV 88 B, SKV 8888 G. Check any SKV plate.
