TravellingVehicles 90 What is the international serie? Like why not using normal ones?
Because of the "Vienna Convention on Road Traffic", licence plates are required to be in Latin characters and Arabic numerals. Worth noting that other countries violate this regularly (Bulgaria, Russia, Ukraine, Mongolia etc)

As skarch said, Russia, Bulgaria and Ukraine are using characters that can be read both in Latin and Cyrillic, I see no violation of the Treaty (annex 2, al.1) But you're right, Mongolia and Morocco are violating this article of the treaty!
Juterman Helvetics But you're right, Mongolia and Morocco are violating this article of the treaty! As well as China, Egypt and Sudan.
Those countries aren't part of the Treaty However, other countries have special situations! Thailand ratified the Treaty in May 2020, so we could expect some changes in their plates in the future! South Korea only signed the treaty (in 1969) but did not ratify it, so the Treaty is not in force in the country. Iran ratified the Treaty in 1976, but Latin characters are only used when Iranian vehicles go abroad. I don't think it respects the goal of the Treaty.
skarch lulzyboy Worth noting that other countries violate this regularly (Bulgaria, Russia, Ukraine, Mongolia etc) Russian plates is not violated this regularly. We used 12 characters, same in Cyrillic and Latin
Latin characters and latin "similar" isn't the same thing. У is not Y for example.
