A tamper evident vehicle registration plate 1, having, a first sheet of material 5 and a second sheet of material 3, where, a front surface of the first sheet 5 comprises a readable indicia 7 which is adhesively bonded 11 to the second sheet 3. The first sheet 5 having one or more lines of weakness 15 extending around the readable indicia 7 so that a rear surface of the first sheet 5 may be bonded to a support, so that, if the second sheet 3 is forcibly removed from the support, the first sheet 5 separates along its lines of weakness 15 and the area of the first sheet bounded by a line of weakness remains bonded to the support and the readable indicia 7 is displayed on the support and the remainder 13 of the first sheet 5 remains bonded to the second sheet 3. The plate may also be a multi-layered structure, where, the first layer is a readable indicia and a second layer is partially bonded to the readable indicia so that when the first and second layers are separated, part of the readable indicia remains bonded to the second layer in a predefined pattern.
