Frequently asked questions
Do you show who owns the car?
No. Check Plate shows only the VIN and technical data. Owner details are never shown.
What if the VIN is not found?
You pay nothing. The amount reserved on your card is released automatically, usually within minutes.
Can I see the mileage too?
Yes, where official inspection data exists. It is a separate option, charged only if odometer readings are found.
