License Plate

License Plate Lookup

Returns information about the vehicle and the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) associated to the license plate. Data requirements around the region parameter differ based on the country_code you are requesting data for. Refer to https://carapi.app/docs/ for additional documentation. Each country makes available different data so depending on the country requested some values may be returned as null.

For testing, any lookup containing the string "#TEST" will return test data. Example:

  • United States: /api/license-plate?country_code=US&region=NY&lookup=830UNL#TEST
  • Canada: /api/license-plate?country_code=CA&region=BC&lookup=#TEST
  • United Kingdom: /api/license-plate?country_code=UK&lookup=#TEST-LD59YMR

The following countries are currently supported: US, CA, AU, UK, FR, IE, NZ, MX, CZ and PT
