The Department of Transport Management (DoTM) in Nepal has begun issuing high security embossed number plates, which are readable by automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera systems.

The number plates carry a chip which is connected to the vehicle’s GPS system; this helps to locate the vehicle in the event of theft.
