Is it ok to still have Number plates with both GB and the euro flag Now we are no longer in the EU? AE8A0A06-3981-47F8-A063-4FE6E69BEF34.jpeg
 
The only place where this 'may' be enforced is Dover (or other departure points)
(Although I've not heard of a single case, the older GB signs seem to be acceptable)

Once on the mainland, there is no enforcement of UK symbols at all. (As long as you have a GB one)

If you display the 'UK' sign only, prepare for most people to presume you are Ukrainian.
(No one else calls Britain "UK", it's Britain, or England, Royamue Uni, Grossbritianian etc.)

You do not need to replace the GB and European Stars on your number plate.
To be strickly legal (as you leave this country) you should have a UK plate on the rear (UK) nearside or continental offside.

To be safe replace the GB with EU stars with the ones above on the numberplate and replace the GB sticker on the rear of the vehicle with a UK sticker to the correct dimensions 18cm wide by 13.3cm tall. The Spainish police can be picky. For a few bob it is not worth the hassle.

As long as you have a sticker on the rear, no one will care about your number plate.

On a recent Eurotunnel 'crossing' (May) I was surprised at how many British vehicles had no country identification at all.

No one seemed to check.

Just done 2 months in France and Spain with no stickers or headlights patches at all, not even environmental stickers of which I drove through loads and even got stopped by a police check and they weren’t bothered at all….😎
