Why is a VIN check important? A CARFAX VIN check is linked to the used car history, and it helps you buy and sell used cars with more confidence.
Besides, it helps you verify the vehicle’s identity, helping you rule out fake or cloned VINs and avoid buying used cars with hidden and expensive repair costs.
A VIN decoder deciphers the chassis number of a used car. A VIN query will tell you what make and model it is and whether there is an import history from 20 all around the world. You can also use our free VIN check before your used car purchase. It gives you important information about the vehicle, so you don’t unknowingly get behind the wheel of a vehicle with a safety risk.

The VIN is always found in the vehicle documents. In addition, the individual serial number is affixed to various parts of the car, for example on the windshield or on the door frame of the driver’s door.
The 17-digit VIN number is assigned individually for each vehicle and therefore needs different components. It consists of digits and letters, excluding the letters I, O and Q to avoid confusion. The number is divided into several blocks:
Manufacturer identification
Check digits
References to the model
Equipment
Year of manufacture
Production site
