Deciphering number plates: Poland

The system of territorial designation mirrors the administrative distribution of Poland. It is split into 16 voivodeships, which are further divided into districts and towns with district status (urban districts). The first letter of the registration number signifies the voivodeship the vehicle is registered in. If it is followed by a single letter before the space, this indicates an urban district; if it is followed by two letters, this denotes a district.
