This Black Friday offer costs you DKK 1,000 at the stall

The sticker is illegal to use on public roads. Still, it's easy to get hold of. Also on Black Friday. But license plates may not be manipulated in Denmark.

Boosted has described it too. The small black sticker that many drivers put on the car's number plate to stand out. But it is illegal to use. Also on Black Friday.

According to FDM, several motorists put the black stickers over the blue DK country code on the left side of the number plate. The black label typically retains the EU star.

But it doesn't work. Not even if since 2009 it has been possible to choose a set of number plates with EU marks. Because these must still be on a blue background.

It is also not possible to choose a number plate without an EU marking and then put a black EU marking on the number plate.

The Boosted editors' quick Google search revealed the first five Black Friday deals on illegal (in use on public roads, ed.) stickers.

But that is a bad idea. Because if the police discovers the stickers on cars that are driving on public roads, they will raffle off 1,000 kroner in stalls.

In Norway there is a similar ban on the use of the stickers. At least on public roads. Nevertheless, Motor.no writes that it has been possible to find the stickers for sale in physical stores. Blue. Norwegian T.Hansen. However, Boosted has not been able to find similar stickers at the Danish part of the company.

To Norwegian TV, the Norwegian part of T.Hansen says that the black license plate stickers have many other uses and that is why they are still in the range.

– Our experience is that this product has many possible uses, including for exhibitions, car shows, track, pictures for social media and much more, says marketing manager Hans-Andre Sorvik.
