One for Chinese plates, unfortunately, it seems you have to link your WeChat account to use it, and of course, pretty much nobody outside mainland China will have that. Screenshots look promising though.

Thanks

The Platesmania forum has a thread for plate lookup sites and I found one for Israel, and I've noticed the Russian website isn't listed yet.

Meshumeshet.com (Israel) - https://meshumeshet.com/
Avtocod (Russia) - https://avtocod.ru/

Thanks, I'll add it.
I hope that you wrote correctly the country name as I did a copy/paste, I'll not re-type it

Rather unexpectedly, Kyrgyzstan:

Sorry, you're right, you do need to log in. My mistake.

But it seems to require a login... (is it the right link? It says "Post an Ad")

@JB007> thanks, updated

New link for Australian plates, this is the best one so far as it tells you everything including trim level, transmissions, and even the VIN for any state in Australia:

For India.
The link on IMCDb is good but go to "Online Services" is false, it's go to "Informational Services" then "Know your vehicle details".
