Where Lakshadweep fancy numbers are listed
Lakshadweep (LD) is one of the few Indian states/UTs that does not currently use the central Parivahan portal for fancy number reservations. Based on our check of the official Lakshadweep Department of Road Transport site (verified May 2026), Lakshadweep does not expose an online fancy/VIP/choice-number booking — reservations are allotted in person at the RTO.
Shortlist your number on myfancynumber.com
Before opening the Lakshadweep Department of Road Transport, narrow down which 4-digit numbers you actually want. Our Lakshadweep page shows today's available pool RTO by RTO, with three ways to filter:
- By your date of birth — Vedic numerology (Cheiro's Indian vehicle method) computes your Mūlāṅka (psychic number) and Bhāgyāṅka (destiny number), then surfaces plates whose digit-sum lands on a friend planet of both, and warns off plates with enemy digits clustered visibly. See the Vedic numerology guide for how it works.
- By your name — Pythagorean reduction to a single digit; numbers in the pool whose digits sum to the same value.
- By a specific 4-digit number — type 9999, 0001, 7777, your birthday, anything; see which Lakshadweep RTOs have it open right now.
Step-by-step reservation
Based on our check of the Lakshadweep Department of Road Transport site, Lakshadweep does not currently offer an online fancy / VIP / choice-number booking flow. Allotment is handled in person at the Lakshadweep RTO.
- Visit the Lakshadweep RTO that will register your vehicle — usually the one closest to your residential address.
- Ask the registration counter for the current fancy / VIP / special-number procedure. Some offices keep a register of available numbers; others run periodic auctions.
- Submit your application along with the standard vehicle documents (engine and chassis numbers, owner ID and address proof, dealer invoice).
- Pay the Lakshadweep reservation fee at the counter. Save the receipt.
- Complete vehicle registration at the same RTO within the validity window stated on the receipt.
Lakshadweep reservation fees
Fees in Lakshadweep are set by the state Transport Department and vary by number category. Premium 4-digit numbers — single-digit sequences (0001, 0009), repeaters (9999, 7777), palindromes (1221), and other auspicious patterns — sit at the highest fee tier; common numbers go at the base rate.
Rather than reprinting a fee table that may go stale, we show the exact rupee fee for each available number directly on each Lakshadweep RTO page — sourced from the same official listing that powers the booking flow.
After you've reserved
The reservation is valid for a fixed window stated on your receipt. Complete the vehicle's permanent registration at the same Lakshadweep RTO before that date. Bring:
- The reservation receipt (printed or on phone)
- Vehicle invoice and temporary registration certificate
- Address proof and photo ID
- Insurance certificate and PUC certificate

Frequently asked questions
Are Lakshadweep fancy numbers booked online or only at the RTO?
Lakshadweep fancy number reservations are not online — they're allotted in person at the Lakshadweep RTO. The Lakshadweep Transport Department site lists routine services (registration, driving licence, permits) but not a fancy/VIP/choice-number portal, so plan an office visit to apply.
How much does a fancy number cost in Lakshadweep?
Fees are set by the Lakshadweep state Transport Department and depend on the number's category. Premium numbers — single digits like 1, 9; repeating patterns like 9999, 7777; palindromes like 1221 — carry the highest fee. Common 4-digit numbers go at the base reservation rate. The exact rupee amounts are listed on the official portal at the time of booking; we surface them on each Lakshadweep RTO page as well once the number is shortlisted.
Can I reserve a Lakshadweep fancy number if I'm registered in another state?
Generally no. Fancy number reservations are tied to the vehicle's registration RTO, which is determined by your residential address. If you're moving to Lakshadweep and registering the vehicle there for the first time, you can reserve under a Lakshadweep RTO; if your vehicle is already registered in another state, you'd need to re-register the vehicle in Lakshadweep before applying for a Lakshadweep fancy number.
How long is a Lakshadweep fancy number reservation valid?
Validity varies by state but is typically a few weeks to a couple of months — long enough to complete the vehicle's permanent registration but short enough to prevent indefinite hoarding. The exact validity date is on the reservation receipt; missing it forfeits the fee and returns the number to the public pool.
