Auction: Who pays how much for ZH 100?
SURELY NO SNAP The Road Traffic Office of the Canton of Zurich will be auctioning off the ZH 100 license plate from November 3 to 9, 2022. It will be the lowest number in existence in the Canton of Zurich.
Zurich residents who value a low license plate on their car have a unique opportunity: ZH 100 is going under the hammer at the Road Traffic Office.
Lowest number achieved so far 52 200 francs
Only since 2018, there are three-digit car control plates for normal cars in the canton of Zurich. They are issued exclusively via the control plate auction. The lowest number to date is ZH 499, which was auctioned in 2020 and fetched a price of 52,000 francs at the time. The most expensive so far was license plate ZH 888 (194,000 francs in 2022).
Proceeds flow into the treasury of the Canton of Zurich
All proceeds from the weekly license plate auction held by the Zurich Road Traffic Office flow into the general treasury of the Canton of Zurich.
Councillor Mario Fehr, who as head of the Security Directorate is also responsible for the Road Traffic Department, says: "The revenue from the license plate auction is a welcome addition to the state coffers in difficult times."
The ZH 100 auction will run online from Thursday morning, November 3, through Wednesday evening, November 9, 2022.
