Tamper-proof licence discs

The tamper-proof licence discs specify licence and vehicle details. These include the vehicle licence number and expiry date, the vehicle registration number, colour and type, and how many passengers the vehicle is licensed to carry. These discs are placed on the front and rear windows of your vehicle when it is licensed and remain the property of NTA at all times.
