Identification Codes

Vehicle Identification Label (VIL)

Vehicle Identification Label (VIL) Locator





The Vehicle Identification Label (VIL) contains the manufacturer name, the month and year of manufacture and the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). It also includes Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and tire information.

If a vehicle requires replacement of the VIL and is 4 years old or less, an authorized dealer must submit the VIN to their respective regional office. The regional office will submit a web form to the assembly plant for the replacement label. Once the label has been printed, a representative from the regional office will deliver the label to the dealer and witness installation on the vehicle. If a vehicle is more than 4 years old and requires a replacement label, the dealer must submit a request to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
