A04 7KA — license plate combination
A04 7KA is filed as a generated example of the Utah sequential passenger serial — A99 9AA (3 letters + 3 digits). Letters AKA sit in positions 1, 5, 6; digits 047 sit in positions 2, 3, 4. This page does not identify a car, an owner, or a live registration. It measures how the string sits inside a published character map of 17,576,000 slots, adopted in this atlas from 2008 after ABC-123 Arches issues.
Disclaimer. A04 7KA is not published here as a real vehicle or plate record. It is a generated example of a serial map for teaching and testing.

Utah format in brief
Utah left a simple ABC-123 as the arches graphic continued. The A99 9AA map is the sequential passenger teaching format.
SPR 9932 is not interleaved and does not match Utah. Full essay: Utah license-plate format.
Combinatorics for A04 7KA
Alphabet size 26 × the digit slots in A99 9AA produces 17,576,000 serials. Rank 32,032 is about the 0.1822 percentile of that space (0 = first serial, 100 = last).

Why someone might look up A04 7KA
| Use | Note |
|---|---|
| Vanity research | People compare a wanted phrase against the sequential map so they can see whether it is a standard serial or a specialty request. |
| Fleet labelling | Inventories and film-unit vehicles often need a plausible unused-looking serial that still obeys a state’s character classes. |
| Fiction and props | Writers and set designers pick a combination that could exist on a given state’s dies without copying a photographed car. |
| Dataset testing | OCR, ANPR and form-validation tests need strings that match a published pattern, including separators. |
| Format teaching | The combination is a worked example of how many plates a map can hold, not a window into a motor-vehicle file. |
Generated example versus a real plate
A real Utah plate is a physical die issued from a series or a vanity queue. A04 7KA on this URL is a string that fits that series’ character classes. Identical glyphs can exist in both worlds; this website has no feed that would let it tell them apart. If you need an official answer, ask the Utah motor-vehicle agency, not plates.autos.
Questions about A04 7KA
Which state does A04 7KA belong to?
A04 7KA is analysed here as a generated example of the Utah passenger serial (A99 9AA). It is not assigned to a motorist by this site. The glyphs fit the sequential passenger skeleton used in this atlas.
Is A04 7KA real?
No claim is made that A04 7KA is currently issued, expired, or reserved. The string sits inside a published character map. Whether a DMV ever stamped it is a registration fact this atlas does not observe.
What does A04 7KA mean?
A04 7KA is a serial, not a slogan. Letters AKA occupy positions 1, 5, 6; digits 047 occupy positions 2, 3, 4. Spoken with the NATO alphabet it reads Alfa · zero · four · seven · Kilo · Alfa.
Which state uses A04 7KA?
This page files A04 7KA under Utah because it fits that state’s A99 9AA passenger map. No other jurisdiction in this atlas shares this skeleton for these glyphs. Other states with a different skeleton will reject the same glyphs.
Which vehicle uses A04 7KA?
None that this atlas knows of. There is no vehicle make, model, colour, or VIN attached to A04 7KA. If you photographed a car, the door-jamb sticker and the registration — not this page — identify the vehicle.
Which state’s format does A04 7KA follow?
Utah sequential passenger plates are taught here as A99 9AA (3 letters + 3 digits), in use in this atlas from 2008. Earlier Utah plates used ABC-123 Arches issues.
Is A04 7KA a vanity plate?
Probably not, as modelled. Sequential passenger serials are issued in series; vanity (personalised) plates are requested strings that often break A99 9AA. A04 7KA fits the sequential map, so this atlas treats it as a series example, not a purchased phrase.
How is A04 7KA read?
Left to right as printed: A04 7KA. Aloud: Alfa · zero · four · seven · Kilo · Alfa. Hyphens and spaces are separators in the published pattern, not extra serial values.
Which letters and numbers are in A04 7KA?
Letters: AKA (3). Digits: 047 (3). Combined alphanumeric length: 6. Separators in the Utah display form are taken from A99 9AA.
How many combinations can the A04 7KA format produce?
The Utah map A99 9AA with a 26-letter alphabet yields 17,576,000 distinct serials. A04 7KA sits at rank 32,032 in that mixed-radix order (about the 0.1822 percentile).
Could A04 7KA have been issued before?
It could, mathematically: the string is inside the 17,576,000-slot space. Issuance is a DMV operation (series rolls, skipped blocks, recalls). This page does not query a live file and cannot say whether A04 7KA was ever bolted to a bumper.
Why does A04 7KA appear on Google?
Because plates.autos publishes a stable analysis URL for the combination. Search engines that crawl https://plates.autos/utah/license-plate-combinations/a-047-ka/ are reading an educational combinatorics page, not a leaked registration. Ranking is not a proof of issuance.
Which country or region is A04 7KA from?
The working assumption on this page is the United States, West region, state of Utah. Other countries use different dies, shields and checksums. A similar glyph string abroad would be a coincidence of alphabet, not a shared registry.
Is A04 7KA a valid US format?
A04 7KA is a valid glyph string under the Utah A99 9AA sequential passenger model used in this atlas. Validity here means “fits a documented sequential passenger skeleton,” not “cleared by a motor-vehicle agency.” Optional, military, and government plates are out of scope.
Which characters can appear on A04 7KA?
On the Utah sequential map: letters from ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ and digits 0–9. Skipped letters in this atlas: none modelled. Separators: whatever A99 9AA prints (space, hyphen, or dot). Decorative dies and stacked graphics do not add serial glyphs.
How might A04 7KA have been generated?
Two honest answers. A DMV would emit it by walking the A99 9AA series. This website can also construct it with PHP by placing letters AKA and digits 047 into those slots — which is exactly how a generated example is made. Neither method is a public records search.
Was A04 7KA used in a film or series?
This atlas does not track screen-used plates. Prop departments often invent in-format serials. If A04 7KA appeared on camera, that is outside the dataset here; treat any match as unverified.
Why might A04 7KA be blurred in a photo?
Publishers, Street View pipelines, and news desks often blur plates as a privacy habit, not because A04 7KA is special. A blur is not evidence that the combination is issued, sensitive, or unique.
What are similar plate numbers to A04 7KA?
Immediate serial neighbours increment the mixed-radix rank by small deltas (for example A04 7JX and A04 7JY). Same-format random draws on this page change on refresh so crawlers can discover more in-class URLs without turning A04 7KA itself into a moving target.
What appears online about A04 7KA?
You may find this analysis, forum guesses, or unrelated hits (part numbers, product SKUs). None of those sources, including plates.autos, is a substitute for a state records request. A04 7KA as published here is a generated example combination.
