From 28th September 2021, the distinguishing mark (or national identifier) displayed on vehicles registered in the United Kingdom that are driven abroad will change from GB to UK.

This means that vehicles registered in the UK must display the letters “UK” when driven in France and EU.

The identifier can be incorporated in vehicle number plates (along with the Union Flag) or as a separate sticker. Note that vehicles featuring the letters GB together with the Council of Europe golden stars are no longer valid for driving abroad.

If your vehicle does not have the UK identifier within the number plate, you will require a UK sticker when driving in France. GB stickers will no longer be valid from the end of September. 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

This is from the gov.uk site “ If your number plate includes the UK identifier with the Union flag (also known as the Union Jack), you do not need a UK sticker.” Valid from 28 September but doesn’t work for Spain Malta and Cyprus where you will need a UK sticker anyway. Slightly off topic Stan - is that a standard sized plate or the slightly larger one ? 2021 P400 Silicon Silver AB

But I guess lots of us will be too picky to put a sticker over the current plates  2021 P400 Silicon Silver AB

Is there a minimum size for the flag? 2018 SE SDV8 4.4 Byron Blue

ur20v... Thanks for taking the time to type all that lovely info, nice to get the story from a resident, We fully respect the laws of any country and want to make sure we don't do anything wrong whilst there, arrogant Brits are a pet hate of mine.... When in Rome....

John, Alistair and Mike thanks for that I will have a look... Regarding insurance, Admiral give you 90 days full comprehensive cover when out of the UK... I'll get a tag to just make things easier although I like Stans idea... I have some nice yellow jackets already...

V8 Noise, you don't need a green card any more (recent change) and you don't need an international driving licence a UK one is fine..

I have some UK stickers for the reg plate on way, far more discrete than the big UK sign... apparently it's because Northern Ireland is not in GB but it is covered by UK... Pete

No requirement. They stopped it about 4 years ago. I think I've still got them in my dash pocket.

Stopped from 22 May 2020. Previously it was a requirement but, this being France , there was no sanction,  John

No it's shaped and won't fit properly. They do one for the other side though. John
