No one is your friend when it comes to number plate registration. The supplier needs to ensure that you are the owner of that particular combination that will be engraved on the number plate. - To Authorize The Number
A little text at the bottom of every road-legal number plate is the identity of the number plates maker. In a way, their identity is affixed to your number plate. Authorizing without complete documentation might lead the supplier to trouble. - To Curb The Cases Of Number Plate Cloning
Number plate cloning is the biggest issue prevailing in the UK. Cloning is the case of vehicle identity theft when the offender picks a vehicle with clear history and replicates the number to put it on his car.
