Reports from the Kherson region indicate that advances in vehicle registration were discussed with local traffic police, with the information shared by the RIA Novosti bureau. In this update, newly registered vehicles receive license plates bearing the region code 184. This code serves as a regional identifier on plates issued under the current registration protocol, and it is noted in the report that only Russian citizens are issued these specific plates. Individuals who have not yet obtained a Russian passport will receive temporary numbers, which display the coat of arms of the Kherson region. These distinctions matter for the way vehicles are cataloged and tracked during the registration process, particularly as regional affiliations may shift over time. (RIA Novosti)
According to the report, the region has adopted a streamlined approach to car registration. A separate technical inspection is not required for this simplified procedure. Instead, validation comes from the inspection of the vehicle by a traffic police officer, confirming compliance with basic safety standards and regulatory checks. This streamlined path is designed to expedite the process for compliant vehicles and reduce waiting times for new registrations, while maintaining oversight through the supervising officers on the ground.

Kirill Stremousov, who serves as the deputy head of the regional administration, was cited by RIA Novosti as indicating that license plate codes might be revised once the region formally becomes part of the Russian Federation. The potential reclassification of codes would reflect changes in administrative status and jurisdiction, with implications for how vehicles are registered and identified across administrative borders.
