VIN is an acronym for Vehicle Identification Number. Each vehicle has a unique identification number. The only way to obtain the licence plate number of a vehicle using a VIN search is to contact the DVLA. There is a £25 charge for this service and you can only perform this search if you are the registered keeper of the vehicle in question.
The form that you will need to submit to the DVLA is V62. This can be obtained direct from the DVLA or from most post offices. The document you will receive in return is a V5C vehicle registration document. Any other details of any car can be found by visiting the website "www.autocalculator.org/Free-VIN-lookup". The VIN is a seventeen-digit number that can be entered into 3 data boxes. There are 3 digits in the first box, 6 in the second box and the remaining 8 in the third box.
When performing this search you can find the world region the car is in, the make of the vehicle, the model number, engine size and the serial number of the vehicle. The year of manufacture will also be provided. This search using this website is quick and free to use. This search is particularly important when purchasing any vehicle and all vehicles manufactured since 1981 will have a unique VIN.
The VIN can also provide a vehicle history report, which is especially useful when purchasing a used vehicle. These details are updated each time any work is done on the vehicle, or after an MOT. The United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration introduced the format of VIN. The only letters that cannot appear in a VIN are I, O and Q. This is to avoid confusion with the numbers 1 and 0.
