Registration Status

Find a vehicle's registration status.

To retrieve the registration status & write-off information for a given vehicle, you can call the status endpoint.

Australia

In Australia, merely call the /v2/vehicles/{number_plate}/status endpoint with region=au. You must send the state in its short format, you can use the long format for front-end purposes if you require. Refer to the Australian state table under the Registration Search heading in this guide for a list.
