Not sure why you mentioned EU, but in case you didn’t know, the EU does in fact standardize license plates: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_vehicle_registration_...

That standardizes the visual appearance, but not the semantics or issuance of the plates. EU residents are generally required to re-register a car when changing which country they reside in, which in turn has its own rules for what constitutes permanent residence.
