Vehicle RC API
Get authoritative vehicle registration details including specifications, ownership, insurance and permit information, from a registration number alone.

What the Vehicle RC API does
Vehicle RC returns the detailed registration record for a vehicle: specifications, ownership, insurance particulars and permit details as held by the transport department.
This is the comprehensive vehicle lookup. For used-vehicle transactions and motor underwriting it supplies the whole picture in one call, rather than assembling it from the seller's paperwork and hoping it is complete.
Where teams use the Vehicle RC API
Due diligence before a used-vehicle purchase
Motor insurance underwriting
Verifying ownership before vehicle finance
Confirming permits for commercial vehicles
