A lot of them you just pick off with an exacto knife. Just slide the blade under the edge and pull gently. Some times a little heat helps.

Re: how to remove US reg #
Also, I find if you can warm the decal slightly with a hair dryer (NOT A HEAT GUN) the decal peels off easier.
The key here is WARM. My workshop is pretty cold, so removing decals from a cold surface is real hard. Warm it up a little so that the adhesive holding the decal on softens a bit, and it peels off smoothly. When warming, keep rubbing your hand on the surface when you do it, so that you can feel the warmth. dont let it get too hot. If you heat the foam too much, then it blisters the foam, and that is BAD!
