Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay are adopting a format based on the European one and the German number plate font?

In Australia, number plates are similar to US ones, but there exists an alternate, larger format based on EU ones, mostly for imported European vehicles. It looks a bit how-do-you-do-fellow-Europeans, and also uses the German font.

French Guinea has EU license plates (upper right corner), pointing it out so you or anyone else can compare it with the mercosur ones.

Isn’t it legally just a perfectly ordinary département of France, formally indistinguishable from Île-de-France or similar? France has a weird fetish for insisting that its most far-flung possessions are not one iota less quintessentially French than anywhere in l’Hexagone

It's a region of France but it has a specific status given the distance, and their own parliament of 55 elected officials

Afaik, Mayotte, Martinique, and Corsica also have the same status and their own parliament
