Tabasco Graphic License Plates, 1998-present

27: Tabasco

Tab Mex #WLD7289
Tabasco undated passenger issue (1998 issue). This was the current Tabasco graphic until mid-2003. The background features the state shape in the national colors of red, white and green. "Mexico" is screened at the top of the plate.
Tab Mex #WLM-56-89
Tabasco undated passenger issue (2003 issue). Tabasco issue featuring a graphic scene of La Venta archaeological park, including a large stone head at the right of the plate.
Tab Mex #WPC-28-59
Tabasco undated passenger issue (2009 issue). 2009 issue from Tabasco, featuring a stylized orange wave graphic in the background, based on the current government logo also included at bottom right.
Tab Mex #WPC-28-59
Tabasco 2014-2016 passenger issue. This graphic was introduced in 2014, using a simpler mostly black-on-white motif with a band of color from the current government logo at top left and the stone head making a return appearance along with the full government logo and state seal. A QR code is also introduced, along with the registration years at bottom left, indicating the intention to use this base through 2016.
Tab Mex #WTV-40-73
Tabasco undated passenger issue (2017 issue). New national standards were established by Mexico's Secretary for Communications and Transport starting in 2017, resulting in a flood of new issues. These standards dictate the placement of graphic elements on the plates, mostly restricted now to the top and bottom of the plate. Tabasco tweaked themselves into compliance by moving the colored band from the corner to the side.
