What the ABN Code Does and Does Not Tell You

A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so ABN places the paperwork in Njikoka. It does not follow the car afterwards: a vehicle sold across state lines keeps its plate until it is re-registered, which is why a ABN plate away from Anambra is a question for the seller rather than a finding in itself.

The letters also say nothing about the holder, the model or the history of the vehicle. Colours and special series are a separate system, explained on the code hub; what the car itself has been through — auction lots, damage, mileage at sale — is recorded against its VIN and travels with the car even when the plate changes.

Questions about the ABN plate number

What does the ABN plate number mean?

ABN is the registration code of Njikoka Local Government Area in Anambra. A vehicle wearing it was registered there; the three digits after the letters are its serial inside that LGA, and the last two letters are the series.

Which state is a ABN plate number from?

Anambra. The code identifies the local government area — Njikoka — and the state is printed on the plate in words above the number.

Have a whole ABN plate, not just the code?

The lookup takes the full plate and returns the local government area behind it. For the history of the vehicle — auction records, damage, mileage and photographs — check it by VIN.
