VIN Verification is a mandatory physical inspection of a car, motorcycle, trailer, truck or off-highway vehicle. This verification is to prevent theft and fraud. This is a requirement for registering vehicles in California.
This is the emission identification number for each car, motorcycle, truck, and off-highway vehicle. According to section #9 of the REG 31 form, all vehicles from 1968 and newer model years, motorcycles from 1978 and newer model years, heavy-duty vehicles from 1979 and newer model years, and off-highway vehicles from 2003 and newer model years must undergo verification with the VIN inspection.
The name of the form is REG31 form. This form can only be filled out by a VIN inspector, CHP, and DMV employees.

The verification performed by the DMV or CHP is free, but the waiting time at the DMV can be unpleasant. A private VIN inspector will charge you a fee for this VIN verification service, and the process can take from 15 to 30 minutes per vehicle. This service can be conducted either on location or at an individual’s location. DMV employees do not travel to your location, but a private VIN Verifier will if they are willing to travel.
A VIN inspector can verify approved out-of-state vehicles, trucks, trailers, motorcycles, OHVs, ATVs, and brand-new vehicles. However, a VIN inspector cannot verify salvage, junked, or foreign vehicles, trucks, trailers, motorcycles, OHVs, ATVs, or brand-new vehicles.
