Vehicle RC Verification APIVerify RC by Vehicle Number from ₹1.5
Verify any RC before you trust it
Owner, chassis, engine and status checked automatically in your software.
The RTO Sarthi vehicle RC verification API verifies the registration certificate of any Indian vehicle number and returns owner, maker and model, chassis and engine number, registration validity, financer, insurance, blacklist and NOC as JSON in seconds, from ₹1.5 per successful verification.
Loan companies, insurers, used car platforms and fleet operators all receive RC copies from customers. A photo or photocopy can be old, edited or for a different vehicle. RC verification means checking the details against the registration record, not trusting the paper.
The RTO Sarthi vehicle RC verification API does that from the vehicle number. Your software gets the owner name, chassis and engine number, maker and model, registration date and validity, financer, blacklist and NOC status, ready to match with the customer’s documents. It works for vehicles from every state of India and starts at ₹1.5 per successful verification.
Not a developer? RTO agents and dealers can verify RCs in the app with RC verification software. For every field the API returns, see the Vahan API page.
RTO Sarthi is an independent private software company. It is not the Vahan or Parivahan portal and is not affiliated with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways or NIC.
