What Are RTO Codes in Mizoram?

Every Regional Transport Office (RTO) in Mizoram is assigned a unique two-digit code by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH). This code forms the second segment of a vehicle's registration number, immediately after the state prefix MZ.

For example, a vehicle registered at Aizawl carries the code MZ-01 in its number plate. This system helps law enforcement, insurance companies, and traffic authorities instantly identify where a vehicle was originally registered.
