O’z DSt 2786:2013 PDF

Full title and description

O’z DSt 2786:2013 — State registration numbers with a reflective coating and protective elements for tractors, tractor trailers, road construction and reclamation machinery, and other self‑propelled machines. The standard specifies appearance, materials, reflective coatings and protective/anti‑tamper features for registration plates used on agricultural and special‑purpose mobile machinery in the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Abstract

This national standard sets technical and design requirements for state registration plates intended for tractors, tractor‑trailers, road‑construction and reclamation machinery and other self‑propelled machines. It covers plate substrates, reflective sheeting or coating, protective elements (anti‑tamper features), graphical elements (pictogram, national identifier), colour schemes for different owner categories, mounting provisions and durability/photometric properties appropriate for outdoor use. The standard was adopted in 2013 as part of a revision of Uzbekistan’s vehicle plate formats for special‑purpose machinery.

• Edition / version: 2013 (O’z DSt 2786:2013).
• Number of pages: 25 (typical published PDF/document length in commercial catalogues).

Scope

Applies to state registration plates specifically produced for tractors, tractor trailers, road‑construction and reclamation machinery and other self‑propelled machines. It defines plate types for different owner categories (for example legal entities vs private owners), required reflective performance, protective/anti‑tamper features, dimensions and placement of national identifiers (flag and the code UZ) and regional codes where applicable. The standard is targeted at manufacturers of plates, vehicle registration authorities and technical inspection agencies responsible for issuing and verifying such plates.

Key topics and requirements

• Plate design and layout: permitted formats, two‑line layouts for tractors and special machinery, inclusion of tractor pictogram and placement of national identifier (flag + UZ).
• Reflective coating / retro‑reflective sheeting: minimum photometric/visibility performance and long‑term outdoor durability requirements (requirements aligned with established retro‑reflective plate practice for road vehicles).
• Protective and anti‑tamper elements: mechanical and material measures to resist removal, falsification and corrosion (protective overlays, secure fixing, tamper‑resistant fasteners or designs).
• Materials and corrosion resistance: recommended substrates/alloys or engineered plastics and protective coatings to ensure dimensional stability and resistance to weathering and chemical exposure.
• Colour coding and category marking: specified background colours and marking conventions for plates issued to legal entities versus private owners (for example white or yellow background variants as defined nationally).
• Dimensions, fonts and character sizing: prescribed character dimensions, spacing, and permitted typefaces to ensure legibility and machine/readability where applicable.
• Mounting and placement: guidance on secure mounting locations on tractors and machinery and on plate orientation to ensure visibility.
• Testing and conformity: recommended tests for reflectivity, adhesion, resistance to abrasion and corrosion, and inspection procedures used by registration/inspection authorities.

Typical use and users

Primary users are plate manufacturers, specialised fabricators of retro‑reflective registration plates, vehicle registration bodies and inspection agencies (notably the state inspection authority for agricultural and self‑propelled machinery under the Ministry of Agriculture), as well as fleet operators of agricultural and construction machinery who must comply with national registration requirements. Enforcement and technical inspection units use the standard to verify plate conformity.

Related standards

Relevant international and national documents include ISO-related standards on retro‑reflective registration plates (for example ISO standards addressing retro‑reflective plates and photometric tests) and other O’z DSt/O’zstandart documents governing test methods and conformity assessment (for example national standards implementing laboratory competence and testing requirements). Users often consult ISO specifications for retro‑reflective plate performance alongside the national O’z DSt text.
