About VIN Scanner & Decoder

Looking at a used car? Point the camera at its VIN and see what the car really is.

VIN Scanner reads the 17-character vehicle identification number from the windscreen, the door pillar sticker or the papers, checks it and decodes it.

• Camera scan — text and barcodes, the torch helps in the dark; or type the VIN
• Make, model, model years and the engines this model came with — offline, for all makes
• Full specification for cars built for the US market: trim, body, engine, gearbox, drive, plant
• US safety recalls (NHTSA) — red when the car must not be driven until repaired
• Dutch plate check (RDW): odometer verdict, first registration and import, current owner since, inspection, insurance, taxi use, open recalls
• Check digit: spots a misread character or an altered VIN
• Links to free official checks: USA (NICB theft and total loss), Poland, Czechia, Lithuania, Latvia — the VIN is copied for you
• Inspection checklist: what to look at before you pay
• History of your checks on the phone, shareable report

Free, with ads. The camera picture never leaves the phone; only the VIN or plate goes to the public databases.

Data: NHTSA vPIC and recalls (USA), RDW open data (Netherlands), open vehicle register of Ukraine (CC BY 4.0). The decoding is a hint, not a guarantee: always check the papers and the car itself.
