The number plates AA 20, AA 15, and R 76 are at the top of the 90 most exclusive license plates of two, three, four, and five digits at the 112th Open Auction, according to RTA.

The most exclusive is a two-digit number plate, such as AA 20 with a face value of AED 1,800,000 (approx. $490,000), AA 15 with a face value of AED 1,700,000 (approx. $463,000), and R 60 with a face value of AED 800,000 (approx. $219,000).

They are followed by three-digit license plates with a starting face value of AED 240,000 ($65,345) and others starting at AED 10,000 (2,722).

Winners must pay the full amount of the number plate within 10 working days or else the deposit will not be returned and they will be declared defaulters. A 5% value-added tax (VAT) will also apply to the number plates.
