How to Check Vehicle Information Under Your Name?
3 Answers
If you want to check the vehicles under your name, you can download the Traffic Management 12123 app, register with your phone number and ID card, and go to the homepage. There is an option called 'My Vehicles.' Click on it, and you will see the cars registered under your name. Another method is to directly visit the vehicle management office with your ID card to inquire. Ordinary citizens do not have the right to check vehicles under someone else's name. This means you cannot query vehicle license numbers online using just an ID card and name. Currently, national vehicle registration management is quite strict, allowing only specific authorities, individuals, and through specific strict procedures to conduct such queries. The vehicle registration information network of the traffic department is only open internally and not publicly available online. Attached is the method for checking vehicle information: Log in to the local traffic police website and select 'Vehicle Information Query.' After the page opens, enter the license plate number and engine identification code (VIN), then click 'Confirm.' Once the page loads, all vehicle information will be displayed, including registration date, annual inspection date, etc.
I usually help friends check vehicle ownership information and generally recommend a few reliable methods. The most straightforward way is to take out the vehicle registration certificate (commonly known as the 'green book'), where the owner's name and vehicle details are clearly stated on the first page. If the green book is missing, you can log in to the Traffic Management 12123 APP on your phone. After registering and linking your driver's license, you can view all vehicles registered under your name in the 'My Vehicles' section. Alternatively, you can visit the vehicle management office with your ID card, where the service counter can conduct a thorough search for you. However, it's important to note that there are now some phishing websites posing as query platforms. Never casually enter your ID number to avoid information leaks. I suggest trying the APP first—it's both convenient and secure.
Last year when I processed my vehicle transfer, I specifically checked the information under my name, and the most convenient method I experienced was using the Traffic Management 12123 APP. After downloading and logging in with facial recognition, just click into the personal center and the list of vehicles bound to your account will pop up. If you're not familiar with mobile operations, simply bring your ID card to the vehicle management office, take a number and wait for your turn, then tell the staff you want to check the vehicles under your name—detailed information can be printed out in just five minutes. Some car dealers might suggest checking the license plate information on the vehicle inspection sticker, but this method isn't foolproof since the sticker could fall off. A special reminder for friends preparing to buy or sell a car: after checking, remember to verify the registration certificate number to avoid license plate cloning.
