Frequently asked questions

No, we do not sell plates ourselves. We are a price comparison website. Our job is to bring publicly published plate listings together in one place, make them searchable and comparable, and tell you how far above or below the market median of comparable plates the seller's asking price is. We do not hold plates, we do not receive payment for plates, and we are not a party to the sale. Price agreement and transfer take place directly between you and the seller.

From introducing buyers to sellers, not from a margin on the price. We add nothing on top of the figure the seller has set, so the price you see on this website and the price the seller advertises are the same figure. Being upfront about this matters, because if we earned a share of higher prices, we would have no reason to tell you which plates are priced above the market median.

Start by searching for numbers you are interested in, whether by digits, digit sum, province, price range or birth day. Open the detail page of a plate you like and look at two things together: its meaning in numerology, and where its price sits compared with the market median of comparable plates. Then decide whether to contact the seller or wait for another listing.

Because in the real market, a given number is usually listed by a single seller, not by several at once as with ordinary products. So rather than comparing several sellers of the same plate, we focus on comparing that plate with comparable plates, meaning the same number elsewhere, or numbers with the same pattern and the same number of digits, which is information you can actually base a decision on.

A graphic auction plate is one whose price is set by competition in an official auction, and it is treated as property that can be transferred, given away or passed on as an inheritance, which gives it a clear market value. A standard white plate obtained by reserving a number in the regular round is tied to the vehicle and cannot be transferred separately, so it has almost no separate value. The white plates that can be bought and sold are those already registered to a vehicle, which change hands through a plate swap within the same area or by transferring the whole vehicle.

No. The price shown with each plate is the price the seller has set, and it is negotiable. The market median of the comparable plates is a reference point that lets buyers and sellers see where that price sits in the market before deciding. The actual price may be higher or lower depending on how much the buyer likes the plate, the letter series, and how the negotiation goes.

The market median is the median of asking prices in a group of comparable plates. This means we sort the prices of the plates in that group from lowest to highest and take the middle value. We use the median rather than the average because plates priced in the tens of millions of baht really do exist and would skew the average for the whole group. Besides the median, we also show the range where most prices fall, so you can see where the figure you are looking at sits within the group. The comparison group starts with plates of the same number in the same market, and because the letter series is the biggest price factor for the same number, the prices of plates in other series are adjusted to be equivalent to the series of the plate you are viewing before the median is found, using ratios derived from real asking prices.

No. The price figures for plates on sale on this website are asking prices, meaning the prices sellers have posted, not the prices actually agreed when a sale closes. Prices actually agreed on the secondary market and the prices dealers pay to buy plates are usually lower than asking prices because of negotiation, but those figures are not published, so we neither show nor estimate them. Department of Land Transport (DLT) auction results are real prices that are made public; we show what we have been able to collect separately from asking prices and do not include them in the market median calculation. So the market median you see is a benchmark for comparing who has priced higher or lower than whom, not a figure that tells you how much you should pay.

Because the comparison group for that plate does not have enough samples. The system works through comparison groups from the most precise to the broadest, starting with the same number in the same market and going as far as numbers with the same pattern across the whole catalogue. If no level has enough samples to meet the minimum threshold, we do not conclude whether the price is cheap or expensive, because a verdict based on two or three plates is unreliable. In that case we show only the price range found, or nothing at all.

It means the seller has not stated a figure in the listing. These are mostly plates in special series or very rare numbers, where the seller wants to negotiate case by case. Plates in this group are not counted in the market median calculation, because there is no figure to calculate with, and no cheap or expensive verdict is shown for them.

It may differ. We record the price as advertised on the date we last checked, and that date is shown with every item. Between checks, sellers can raise or lower prices or close listings at any time, and the final price also depends on negotiation. If the figure the seller quotes is very different from what you see on the website, let us know and we will check and correct it.

It is only the price of the number itself as advertised by the seller. It does not include government fees for the transfer and for issuing new plates, stamp duty as required by law, a document handling fee if the seller charges one, or delivery costs. These are each seller's own terms. You need to ask clearly before agreeing, and you should ask for an itemised breakdown, not a single lump sum.

It does not mean that. The market median can only tell you where this figure sits compared with similar plates. A plate priced above its group may have a real reason, such as a letter series that reads more pleasingly, a province where demand is higher, or paperwork that is more ready. What the market median gives you is bargaining power: knowing a reference figure before you open the conversation. It is not an instruction to buy or not to buy.

It is free and needs no sign-up. Enter the plate you are interested in, and the system tells you the market median and price range of comparable plates, and how far above or below the market median the price you have been offered is. The calculator only compares asking prices. It does not deduct a liquidity discount, does not check the plate's legal status, and does not add to or subtract from the price based on the numerology digit sum. These steps are explained in the article on how to value a license plate in 7 steps.

Because the letter series is the biggest price factor for the same number. Old two-letter series are no longer issued, so they are genuinely rare. Doubled letters and series whose leading digit matches the digits on the plate are also valued highly by the market. A sample of one dealer's asking prices on 29 September 2026 showed differences of about 3 to 10 times between series. So we always start by comparing with plates in the same series. If that series is not in our catalogue, the price range is wider and confidence is lower.

No. The starting auction price is the minimum price set by the Department of Land Transport (DLT) for bidding to begin. Plates that people compete hard for can close several hundred times higher, such as 9กก 9999, which closed at ฿45,090,000 in December 2022, while less sought-after special plates usually close at about 1 to 1.5 times the starting price. The starting price is therefore a floor, not a valuation.

The market median is calculated from prices that sellers publicly advertise, which we collect from many websites and plate marketplaces across the country, and then take the median of a group of comparable plates. The comparison starts with plates of the same number in the same market, and the prices of plates in other series are first adjusted to be equivalent to the series of the plate you are viewing. This figure is an asking price for reference, not an actual closing sale price.

From plate sale listings published publicly on the internet. We read the number, province, vehicle type, advertised price and the seller who posted the listing, and record them with the date checked. Every item links back to the original listing so you can verify for yourself that we have not made up the figures. We do not collect information that sellers have not made public.

We collect data in rounds and show the date last checked on every item. If an item has not been seen in new rounds for longer than the set threshold, its price is no longer counted in the market median calculation, so that old listings do not skew the median. The page for that plate remains, clearly stating which date the information is from.

Because we only see what the listing says. If the seller has not closed the listing after the sale, the item will continue to appear until we detect that the listing has gone. Once we find it has closed, we change its status and keep the page for a while, so that people searching for that number can still see its price history and be shown similar plates to compare.

Contact our team through the channels on the Contact us page, telling us which listings you would like us to collect, along with a public source where the prices can be verified. We show prices as the seller set them without adding anything, and we do not accept payment for rankings. The order on the listings page always comes from the sorting criteria the user chooses.

You can report it on the Contact us page. Sending the link to the plate page with the problem will help us check it faster. Things worth reporting include prices that do not match the listing, statuses that do not reflect reality, an incorrectly identified seller, and explanations of number meanings that depart from the texts you follow. We correct them and record what was changed.

Press the contact button on the plate page to fill in a short form, or message our team on LINE or call by phone. The system attaches the plate's reference code automatically. Our team will help check that the listing is still open and then introduce you to the seller. From then on, price negotiation, deposits and appointments are all between you and the seller.

No. We have no power to hold a plate, because we do not hold the plate and we are not the seller. Pressing contact registers your interest so that we can pass it on to the seller. A plate is only set aside once you have agreed terms with the seller, according to that seller's own conditions.

You pay the seller directly. We do not accept payment for plates under any circumstances. If someone contacts you using this website's name and asks you to transfer money into an account, stop and tell us immediately. Before transferring money to a seller, check who is receiving the money and whether their identity can be verified, and always ask for proof of payment.

We are not a party to the sale, so we cannot take responsibility on the seller's behalf. What we are responsible for is the accuracy of the information we show: prices that match the listing, check dates that are accurate, and a market median calculation method that is disclosed so it can be checked. If you find a seller whose information does not match the listing, let us know, and we will investigate and remove that item when there is good reason.

Use the page for that number as your starting point. Even when there are no listings yet, it shows both the number's meaning in numerology and the price range for numbers with the same pattern, so you know roughly what budget to set. Then check back when we collect the next round of listings. Another option is to tell our team the number you want so they can keep an eye out for it.

The basic set is the original vehicle registration book, the national ID cards of both the transferor and the transferee with copies, the fully signed transfer application forms, and a power of attorney if you are not handling it in person. For a company, you also need a recent company registration certificate and a copy of the ID card of the authorised director. The exact list may vary from case to case, so you should confirm with the land transport office where you will file.

The transfer fee, application fee, stamp duty and new plate fee are set by the Department of Land Transport (DLT) and can be revised, so we do not publish fixed figures on the website, to avoid them becoming inaccurate. You should check the current rates directly with the DLT, or ask the seller who will handle it for you to provide an itemised breakdown before agreeing.

If the documents are complete and there are no special conditions, such as the vehicle being under finance or the registration book being held by a financial institution, the process usually takes just a few business days from the filing date. But if you need to wait for a letter of consent from the finance company or an additional vehicle inspection, it will take longer. The exact timeframe depends on the seller and the land transport office where you file, so you should ask clearly before agreeing.

Yes, but you must first get consent from the financial institution holding the registration book, because changing the plate number requires the original book. We recommend contacting the finance company to request the documents before agreeing with the seller, which will save you a long wait afterwards.

Each plate is tied to a vehicle type as set by the Department of Land Transport (DLT). Private passenger cars with no more than seven seats, private pickup trucks, and private passenger vehicles with more than seven seats use different plate sets and cannot be swapped across types. That is why every plate's detail page clearly states the vehicle type, and the market median is also calculated separately by vehicle type.

The score combines two traditions. The Thai side looks at the digit sum of the numbers and letters according to numerology texts, the meaning of adjacent digit pairs, and whether there are any letters or digits that are Kalakini (กาลกิณี), inauspicious for the birth day you selected. The Chinese side looks at how each digit sounds, meaningful number combinations, and gives more weight to the final digits than the leading ones. Every score shows a breakdown of where it comes from.

Add together the values of the consonants in the letter series, the leading digit of the series if there is one, and every digit of the plate number. For example, a two-letter series with values of 1 and 1, plus a leading digit of 1, plus the number 999 gives a digit sum of 30. Some schools do not count the letter series or do not count the leading digit, so our calculator lets you choose and always shows the breakdown.

No. The birth day you select in the calculator is used only to work out how well the numbers suit you, and it is not saved to a database or to system logs. If you fill in the contact form, we keep only the contact details you entered, and your birth day is never linked to your identity.

The system shows a clear warning bar rather than hiding it in the details, because Thai texts treat Kalakini as a personal caution that a high overall score does not cancel out. The decision depends on whether you give more weight to Thai or Chinese numerology, and you can switch the calculation mode yourself on the page. All of this is personal belief, so please use your own judgement.

Because the numerology and Taksa (Thai astrological system) texts of different schools group the letters and assign meanings to digit sums differently on some points. So we keep the belief tables separate from the program and state the version number of the tables used on the page about our calculations. When the tables are updated, we record what changed and why.

It has an effect, but it is not the main factor. Price is driven first by rarity and how easy the number is to remember. A triple-digit plate with an ordinary digit sum is often more expensive than a plate with a very good digit sum but a number that is hard to remember. This is why we show the market median separately from the numerology score, so you can see both angles at once and weigh them yourself: whether to pay more for meaning or pay more for rarity. Our market median does not add a premium for the digit sum. People who study the market estimate from asking prices that a good digit sum can add about 10 to 20 percent to the price within the same group, which is an inference, not a statistical measurement.

No. We are a private business running a license plate price comparison website. We are not the Department of Land Transport (DLT), we are not an auctioneer, and we have no authority to issue plate numbers ourselves. Every step of registration and transfer is carried out at a land transport office in line with government regulations.

No. The order on the listings page comes from the sorting criteria the user chooses, such as price from lowest to highest or numerology score. There are no positions that can be bought, and we do not hide cheaper listings from the results. If we did, the market median we calculate would be meaningless.

Only to get back to you about the plate you are interested in and to pass it on to the relevant seller at your request. We keep only what is necessary: your name, phone number, LINE ID and message. We do not sell or exchange data with third parties for marketing, and you can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data as set out in the privacy policy.

No, and we make no such claim. Interpreting the meaning of numbers is a long-standing belief that can help you choose a number you feel good about, but it is not a guarantee of any financial, health or safety outcome. What we can be responsible for is the accuracy of the information shown and the transparency of how the market median is calculated.
