Systems, methods and apparatus for video processing are described. The video processing may include video encoding, video decoding, or video transcoding. One example method of video processing includes performing a conversion between a video including one or more pictures and a bitstream of the video according to a format rule. The format rule specifies that a first syntax element that indicates whether motion vector difference for a particular reference picture list (RPL) is indicated is conditionally included in the bitstream based on (i) whether a second syntax element indicating whether an RPL information is included in a picture header and/or (ii) a number of reference pictures in the particular RPL in case that the RPL information is present in the picture header.
