Requesting a record for a vehicle that is not yours has extra rules. Ask us first.

VYN is a private registration service, not a DMV office. We are licensed by the California DMV as a registration service (Occupational License #82554) and we do the paperwork for you. Government fees are set by the DMV and are separate from our service fee.

What we can help with

These are small transactions that block bigger ones. Usually it is faster to just get them done.

  • Vehicle record requests
  • Registration document requests
  • Miscellaneous original document requests
  • Registration address updates
  • Ownership information paperwork
  • Replacement documentation

How it works

Tell us what you have

Call, text, or send the short form. A photo of your paperwork is usually enough for us to know what is needed.

We check the record

We look at what the DMV is asking for on your vehicle and tell you exactly which documents to bring.

We submit the request

We prepare the correct request against the vehicle record and handle the submission.

What to bring

  • Valid identification
  • Documents showing your relationship to the vehicle or record, where required
  • The plate number or VIN, if you have it

Not sure?

Access to vehicle records is restricted by law, and what you can request depends on your relationship to the vehicle. Call and we will tell you what is available to you.

Fees and requirements vary. Eligibility, government fees and processing time depend on the vehicle record and the transaction. We confirm your exact situation before anything is filed.

What it costs

Two separate numbers, and we never blend them into one.

Our service fee

What VYN charges to handle the transaction for you. We quote it before anything is filed, so you always know it up front. Call and we will give you the number in a minute — free, no obligation.

DMV fees

Set by the state, not by us. They depend on your vehicle and on the transaction, and they are paid to the DMV. We show you the exact amount, always separate from our fee.

Questions people ask

Can I request a record for someone else's vehicle?

Only in limited circumstances. Vehicle record access is restricted by law and generally requires a permitted reason and documentation. We will tell you honestly whether your case qualifies.

I moved. Can you update my address?

Yes, updating the address on the registration record is one of the most common requests we handle, and it prevents renewal notices going to your old place.

Where are you located?

3411 Tweedy Blvd Ste E, South Gate, CA 90280. We are open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Are DMV fees included in your service fee?

No. Government fees are set by the DMV and are always separate from our service fee. They depend on your vehicle and the transaction.

Are you a DMV office?

No. We are a privately owned business licensed by the California DMV as a registration service, Occupational License #82554. We are not a branch of the DMV.
