South Australia Number Plates

South Australia's personalised plates are issued through Service SA, with the state's traditional ochre and black colour scheme reflecting the outback landscape. SA offers a solid range of plate styles at competitive prices — custom plates start from around $340, making them more affordable than some eastern states. The secondary market also offers good value for buyers looking for short or meaningful combinations.

Available plate types in SA include custom plates (choose your own alphanumeric combination), euro plates (slim rectangular European format), and slimline plates (narrower than standard). SA has also introduced themed plates for organisations and causes. While the range is more focused than VIC or NSW, South Australian plates are well-regarded for their clean design and readability.

Transferring personalised plates in South Australia is handled through Service SA centres or online. AusPlates provides a convenient way for South Australian buyers and sellers to find each other — whether you're listing a plate you no longer need or searching for a specific combination to personalise your vehicle.
