New to California? Any CA DMV office can verify your vehicle at no charge — you'll wait in a separate inspection lane with your vehicle, in addition to the regular line inside for your paperwork. Our licensed mobile service eliminates that extra inspection-lane wait by coming to you.
Bring the vehicle itself plus your out-of-state title or registration — the verifier has to physically inspect the VIN.
Plan for a wait: field offices handle verifications on a walk-in basis.
Good to know: our mobile service replaces the DMV inspection lane only — if you process your registration in person at the DMV, the regular service line still applies.
Why Do You Need a VIN Verification?
The California DMV requires a REG 31 verification in specific situations. Here are the two most common reasons:

Out-of-State Vehicle
Your vehicle was last registered in another state and you're now registering it in California. The DMV needs to verify the VIN matches your registration or titling documents before issuing California registration.
Fell Out of CA Database
Your vehicle was previously registered in California but the registration lapsed for an extended period. The DMV's system no longer has an active record and requires re-verification.

View Form DetailsUnderstanding VIN Verification in California
A VIN verification is a physical inspection to ensure that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the car matches the ownership documents. This is not a safety check; it is an identity check.
The REG 31 form is mandatory when registering nonresident vehicles, vehicles with no California record, or any vehicle requiring physical inspection to confirm the VIN matches your title, Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin (MCO/MSO), or registration card. Our authorized verifications are accepted for all standard registrations including cars, trucks, trailers, RVs, and more.
