Japanese License Plates :
The different colors are based on the size of the vehicle and whether

and black letters. Private cars under 660 cc have a yellow background
with black letters. Commercial use vehicles over 660 cc use white
letters on a green background while those under 660 cc use white
letters on a black background. If you see a white plate with a red
line through it, it's a temporary or dealer's plate. Blue plates
are usually diplomatic, while white plates with a certain kanji on
them are for consulate vehicles. White plates with no Japanese and
six digit numbers are military.

DAMN your info is a little off
a Y- Plate or E-Plate or A-Plate which are in engligh, well the symbol is, the place of where the plates are from is VERY much still in KANJI
ALL Normal vehicles over 1000CC are all white with green letters, the difference is where the plate was issued in KANJI and the symbol is HIRAGANA
BLUE Plates that just have Numbers and letters in English are all government, even on Japanese or US GOV Vehicles.
Just to help you info, for whatever reason it was for. hehe
