Find VIN from REG
What our customers say
Thank you so much for your help it really is appreciated. Unfortunately I lost my V5 for my motorbike and tried various ways of getting the VIn number without success. You were the only one who came up trumps with the number so that I could apply for a new V5. Once again thank you

What is a VIN?
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a unique identification number specific to a vehicle. It consists of 17 characters that are permanently engraved in the vehicle chassis. You can find VIN from registration plate online using our service above.
What does a VIN look like?
VIN number looks like a set of numbers and letters and is used to identify vehicles. The VIN includes the fuel it uses, the batch number, engine size and type, and determines which manufacturing plant assembled the car. Some manufacturers (like BMW) offer reports of every equipment option specified.
How can I find my VIN online?
You can purchase the VinFromReg report, and the VIN received in our report should match the vehicle you might be interested in buying. That's so to ensure the authenticity of the used car. If the numbers don't coordinate, at that point, all things considered, the vehicle has encountered some issues before or is a stolen vehicle, and you won't most likely locate its detailed vehicle history.
How to find the chassis number from the registration number?
Performing a chassis number check can keep you away from faulty cars that may have been cloned or stolen. It helps authenticate the used car that you are about to buy. Enter your reg number into the search bar above to find VIN from the registration plate fast & easily.
Where can I find my VIN?
There are usually three locations where you can typically find your car's VIN number. 1) Check the driver's side dashboard. 2) Check the driver's door frame or pillar. 3) Check under the hood. However, to find VIN from reg plate online, that is easy, fast and affordable, use our VinFromReg service above.
Where do I find VIN on V5C (logbook)? What if it is different?
VIN from the vehicle should be the same as the VIN in the V5C logbook (available in vehicle specifications section). If it doesn't match, find out why; sometimes, the engine is replaced, or the car is restored. Some vehicles are made illegally (cloning), so it is crucial to research and find VIN number from registration plate before buying a used car.
Is the VIN Number and Chassis Number the same?
The vehicle's VIN and chassis numbers are called interchangeably. VIN is engraved on the chassis, so it is fixed in every model.
