What does VT mean?

VT is a prefix assigned to all civilian aircraft registered in India by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
The registration prefix is a standard practice used by many countries to denote the country of registration for aircraft. It helps identify the nationality of the aircraft and facilitates tracking and record-keeping within the aviation regulatory framework.
The VT prefix is followed by a hyphen and then a combination of letters and numbers that identifies the specific aircraft.

Note:
The VT prefix originally stood for Viceroy Territory, reflecting the historical association of the registration system with the British colonial era when India was under British rule.
Despite India gaining independence in 1947, the VT prefix has been retained for aircraft registrations in the country.
