Complete All India RTO Code List

Every vehicle registered in India is assigned to a specific Regional Transport Office (RTO). The first two letters of a number plate represent the state, and the next two digits represent the specific RTO code (for example, KA-51 for Electronic City or KA-53 for KR Puram). Our comprehensive online RTO Code List helps you easily identify the exact state, district, and jurisdiction where any car, bike, or commercial vehicle is officially registered.

Why Use Our RTO Code Directory?

Identify Vehicle Origin Instantly: Decode any vehicle's number plate in seconds. Knowing the exact RTO helps you understand where the vehicle has been primarily driven and maintained.
Crucial for Used Vehicle Buyers: If you are purchasing a second-hand vehicle from a different RTO or state, you will need to apply for a No Objection Certificate (NOC). Knowing the parent RTO is the mandatory first step.
Locate RTO Offices Easily: Stop searching through scattered government websites. Our directory provides you with the exact jurisdiction mapping so you know which regional office handles your paperwork.
Stay Compliant with Local Rules: Different RTO jurisdictions can have slight variations in road tax structures, fitness validity norms, and state-specific emission rules.
