Questions
What year is an SPC car plate?
The SPC series first opened for bidding in August 2025. It was the newest series for 2 months, until SPD in October 2025. So a car with an SPC plate was registered in August 2025 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 SPC plate?
No older than 1 year and 3 months (in November 2026), counted from August 2025, when the series first opened for bidding. It can be younger: the plate only says when the number came out.
When does an SPC car’s COE end?
A COE lasts 10 years from registration, so a car registered in August 2025, when the series first opened for bidding, has its first COE running to about August 2035; one registered later, later still. After that it’s deregistered, or 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 SPC?
SPD, which first opened for bidding in October 2025, then SPE in December 2025. Before SPC came SPB (July 2025).
What letter does SPC 1234 end in?
SPC 1234 E. The last letter is a checksum worked out from the prefix and the number: SPC 1 S, SPC 88 S, SPC 8888 Y. Check any SPC plate.
