Series Overview
U is a single-letter series auctioned by iM4U Sentral, part of the 1Malaysia for Youth (iM4U) organisation behind the earlier 1M4U plates. Bidding for U 1 to U 9999 opened in August 2017, closed on 8 September and was decided on 18 September, with a minimum bid of just RM50 and no upper limit.
Because university series later took prefixes such as UM, UKM and UTM, the single U is sometimes mistaken for one of them, but it has no university link. Like other organisation-issued series, unregistered U numbers lapsed when JPJ ended such sales on 31 December 2019.
