Trailer number plates made for UK roads
Your trailer or caravan must display the same registration as the vehicle towing it. Order a yellow rear number plate for your existing registration, whether you need a replacement for a damaged plate or an extra plate for towing.
Our standard oblong trailer number plate is 520 × 111 mm and costs £13.99 including VAT before optional extras. Free UK delivery and our three year guarantee are included. Measure your trailer’s plate mounting area before ordering.
Plate size and specification
- Standard oblong size: 520 × 111 mm
- Yellow reflective background with flat printed black characters

Choose your trailer plate options
The builder starts with a single yellow rear plate. You can add a border for £1.00, a badge for £1.50 or a complete fixing kit for £3.50. Check the live preview and total before checkout. If you only need a trailer plate, keep Rear only selected.
Fitting your trailer number plate
Check the size and position of your existing plate holder or lighting board. Secure the plate using suitable fixings and keep the registration and required markings clearly visible. Our number plate fitting guide explains drilling and fixing options. A lighting board, holder and lights are not included.
Trailer and caravan number plate FAQs
Does my trailer plate need to match my car?
Yes. The registration displayed on the trailer must match the vehicle towing it. If a different vehicle tows the trailer, fit a plate matching that vehicle’s registration before travelling. See the GOV.UK number plate rules.
Can I order just one yellow plate?
Yes. Choose Rear only to order one yellow plate from £13.99 including VAT. You do not need to buy a front plate or a pair.
Can I use this plate on a caravan?
Yes, where your caravan takes a standard 520 × 111 mm oblong plate. Enter the towing vehicle’s registration and check the mounting space before ordering.
What documents do I need?
We need proof of identity and entitlement to the registration you order, usually the towing vehicle’s V5C or another accepted entitlement document. After checkout, your order confirmation email explains how to upload your documents securely. We check and approve them before producing and dispatching your plate. Read our document guide.
How quickly can I receive my trailer plate?
Free UK delivery is included, and express delivery options are available. We aim to dispatch on the same working day when your order and documents are received and approved before 1pm, subject to availability. Same-day dispatch is not guaranteed. See delivery options and full terms.
Is this the separate trailer registration plate for travelling abroad?
This page is for the yellow plate displaying the towing vehicle’s registration. Some trailers travelling abroad also need their own trailer registration and a separate registration plate. Check the current GOV.UK trailer registration guidance before travelling.
