What Are RTO Codes in Uttarakhand?

Every Regional Transport Office (RTO) in Uttarakhand 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 UK.

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

Uttarakhand currently has 20 registered RTOs spread across its districts and cities, each serving vehicle owners in that region.
