Go to police and report it. Then go to the correct department ( wydzial komunikacji and have new ones done)

@Lenka Thank you for your help. Do you have an idea how much it will cost for scooter number plate?

That depends on whether you will want to just buy new plates or get a new registration number.

The cost doesn`t matter. What really matters is you can`t use the vehicle until you get replacement plates. A few years ago I ran into a group of wild boars and didn`t notice I lost the front plate. I waited more than a week for a new one.

I think he can if temporarily he puts a cardboard handwritten plate on it,I THINK,as I have seen plenty of cars in Poland driven like that assuming its legal.

I could see it, too but it was a long time ago. If the police spots you driving without an original plate, you get a fine, the upper limit is 5000 PLN and they take your vehicle registration document.

5000 PLN

I would rather walk then taking that risk.

Thank you All. I appreciate your responses. Yes, that's crime to ride without number plate. I wouldn't ride until I get it. I am going to make police report and then new plate.

Do it rather quickly. It might have been used to steal petrol etc

Or wreak havoc at the filling station, by driving inside the premises.

This is less probable but they can still steal the cash machine. I mean steal, not rob.

This is less probable

True that is done in Poland by Brits only:

You must not drive it without plates. The licensing authority can issue temporary plates which you can use for up to 30 days while you wait for the replacement plates to be issued.
