KUF Plate Number Meaning: Kurfi, Katsina
The KUF plate number is registered in Kurfi Local Government Area, Katsina. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
KUF is issued in Kurfi. About 117,581 people lived across its 572 km² in 2006, roughly 206 for every square kilometre. A plate check answers where a registration was opened, and a VIN check has to answer everything else. A sale changes the owner, never the district on the plate.

What the KUF Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so KUF places the paperwork in Kurfi. 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 KUF plate away from Katsina 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.
