Each French département has a number. The order is alphabetical in most cases. Until 2009, these numbers were found as the last numbers of French car number plates.
Since April 2009 regional provenance is no longer visible. The number plates are a random combination of 2 letters, 3 numbers, and 2 letters (AA-111-AA). A sticker can be added with the number of a département, that the car holder can choose freely no matter if he lives there or not.
