Don't tow your car to the DMV. We are authorized to come to you.
What is a VIN Verification?
A physical inspection required by the California DMV. We physically verify that the VIN on your vehicle matches your ownership documents (Title/Registration). This prevents fraud and is required for registration.
Who is Authorized?
The DMV REG 31 form can only be signed by: DMV employees, CHP/Peace Officers, and Licensed Vehicle Verifiers (LVV) like us. We are licensed to come to your home or office.

DMV vs. Private Verifier
The DMV performs verifications for free, but you must tow/drive the vehicle to them and wait in line. Private Verifiers charge a travel fee for the convenience of coming to you and the speed of service.
New to California?
If you purchased a vehicle from another state or recently moved here, California requires a physical VIN verification to issue a title.
The Solution
We travel to your location, verify the Out-of-State title against the VIN plate, and complete the form on the spot.
"No Record Found"
Did the DMV tell you your vehicle "fell out of the system"? This happens when registration lapses for several years.
The Fix
To reactivate the record, the DMV treats it like a new entry. A standard VIN verification (REG 31) restores your vehicle's history.
