The plate’s Latin mapping is not ordinary phonetic transliteration. The letters are paired as reported in the source, rather than translated from their sound.

Seventeen letters, two lines

The only page I could read for this format is the Wikipedia article on Saudi plates. The interior ministry site did not answer on 9 Nov 2026, so this essay is marked as one source and the authority URL stays the ministry home rather than a quote I never saw. The article’s mapping table allows 17 Arabic letters, not the full alphabet. Letters that would collide with another letter in a Latin reading are left out. I do not reprint a letter I am unsure of just to look complete. The Arabic-to-Latin mapping below follows that article’s table; it is a single-source reference, not an independent confirmation.

A standard plate pads the number to four digits. Personalised or earlier plates may use one, two or three digits, with or without zero padding. The character cap I store is three letters plus four digits. There is no city code on the plate itself. The right-hand strip carries the coat of arms, the KSA mark, and a seal. The source contradicts itself on dimensions: its infobox says 520×110 mm; its body describes 335×155 mm and 550×110 mm. These are three reported values from one article, not three independently verified specifications. The white base is shared. The strip is on the right at the shorter size and can sit centred on the long size.

Latin letters under the Arabic are a transliteration for people who do not read Arabic, not a second registration. If you type only Latin in the custom box, you are making a picture, not the plate a Riyadh printer would strike. Absher is the service that actually issues numbers. I am not connected to it, and a mockup here will not show as reserved.

Because the ministry page failed to load, I will not invent fees, banned words, or ordering rules beyond the source’s letter table. When that site answers, the letter list can move from “see Wikipedia” to a quoted row. Until then the status of this page is one source.

Questions

Why are some Arabic letters missing?

The published set has 17 letters. The rest of the alphabet is not used on plates, because several letters look alike once transliterated.

Does the plate show the city?

No city code is printed. The strip carries the national marks instead.
