About RTO code AP03

Every Indian vehicle registration begins with a state code followed by a two-digit RTO number. The prefix AP03 is assigned to the Guntur Regional Transport Office in Andhra Pradesh. Any vehicle whose number plate starts with AP03 was originally registered here, which also means its RC file, fitness record and challan history sit with this office.

How to decode a AP03 number plate

A typical AP03 plate looks like AP03 AB 1234. The first two letters (AP) are the state, the next two digits identify the Guntur RTO, the following one or two letters are the running series, and the last four digits are the unique vehicle number. When a series is exhausted the RTO moves to the next letter pair, so newer AP03 vehicles generally carry later series letters.

How to check RC details for a AP03 vehicle

  1. Copy the full plate exactly as printed, for example AP03AB1234.
  2. Run the RC details lookup to confirm registration status, make, model, fuel type, insurance and PUC validity.
  3. Run the vehicle owner lookup and match the registered owner name against the seller's ID.
  4. Finish with an e-challan check — unpaid Andhra Pradesh fines transfer to you along with the vehicle.

Buying a used vehicle registered at Guntur

A mismatch between the RTO on the plate and the seller's stated location is one of the most common warning signs in an Indian used-vehicle deal. If a car is advertised as a local Guntur vehicle, the plate should start with AP03 and the RC record should show Andhra Pradesh as the registering state. Re-registration in another state requires an NOC, so ask for that paperwork whenever the two do not line up.
