In VT it's min:2 Max:7 which holds true in most states, but a few states have higher minimum's and allow a max of 8

Max in IL is 7 for standard issue plates, vanity (all numbers or all letters) or personalized (numbers and letters).

Not sure what the max is for all the dozens of "special" series plates they offer, like environmental, etc.
