The British Virgin Islands requires its residents to register their motor vehicles and display vehicle registration plates.[1] Many plates have 'Virgin Islands' and 'Nature's Little Secrets' above and below the sequence respectively. Before 1996, European standard 520 mm × 110 mm sizes and British stamping dies were used, but current plates are North American standard 6 × 12 inches (152 × 300 mm) as used in the US Virgin Islands.[2]
