Series Overview
PUTRAJAYA is the registration used in the Federal Territory of Putrajaya before the F series. Instead of a letter, the plate spelled out the territory's name, written Putrajaya in Calisto MT Italic with numbers in Arial Black, as JPJ specified. Wikipedia dates the series to the founding of Putrajaya in 1995; Chinese-language records date it to 2001, the year Putrajaya became a federal territory.
The run covered PUTRAJAYA 1 to PUTRAJAYA 9999, and the plates were initially limited to people who lived or worked in Putrajaya. From 1 June 2016, new Putrajaya registrations switched to the F prefix, for Federal, which has been followed by FA, FB and the other annual Putrajaya runs.
