Registering your vehicle with the California Department of Motor Vehicles (CDMV) will require VIN verification. The VIN number is your unique Vehicle Identification Number. You can have this done for you at the CDMV, but you can waste a lot of time waiting around in long queues; the waiting times at the California Highway Patrol aren't any better. Instead, you can get your VIN verified by a bonded and licensed vin verifier San Francisco, California.

The DMV might not have your vehicle registered in their database; this is more likely if it has remained unregistered for five or more years. In this case, or if your vehicle has recently entered the state of California, you will need to get the VIN verified.

A licensed and bonded Californian VIN verification service will go to your location, and will have the REG 31 form for DMV professionally filled out and completed so that you can get your vehicle registered faster. They can verify any kind of vehicle, whether you have a car, truck, motorbike, all terrain vehicle, or a custom automobile. They can even do boats, motor homes, trailers and tractors.

There are specific circumstances when you need VIN verification to register your vehicle; namely, if it is no longer in the DMV database, it is registered in a state other than California and is being brought into the state, your motorcycle has an out of state title, or your vehicle documentation shows a wrong VIN.

A licensed VIN verifier in San Francisco will require other documentation along with the VIN when verifying a vehicle for registration. They will need to be presented with any registration papers, the title, and bill of sale, etc. Depending on the age of the vehicle, they will also need to see the Federal Certification Label and/or an EPA sticker; models made in 1988 or later should have the FC label, while anything from 1976 onwards will have the sticker.

New motorcycles or vehicles, and commercial vehicles not exceeding 8000 pounds of empty weight, don't require VIN verification. If the Federal Certification Label has been tampered with, does not exist, or is different to what is on the documents, then VIN verification can't be done. Similarly, incomplete, salvaged and junk titled vehicles are not verifiable, nor are motorcycles that have had alterations made to their engine, have no title or record, or possess foreign documentation.

The verifier is not responsible for locating your VIN, so make sure that you know where it is located and that it is legible so that the correct number can be verified. If you're not sure or don't know where the VIN is, the verifier may be able to give you some suggestions on where it might be found, particularly on older models. If this isn't possible, you should be able to find an answer online.

If you need to register your vehicle, it is nice to be able to get it done as quickly as possible; the affordable and friendly VIN verification service in San Francisco will come to you fast, so you won't have to wait around wasting valuable time and can get on with the more important things in life.
