NMVTIS Report: A Smarter Way to Check Used Vehicle History
The NMVTIS (National Motor Vehicle Title Information System) is a vital resource for anyone considering the purchase of a used car, truck, motorcycle, or RV. Offered through VinAudit.com—an official NMVTIS data provider—this report delivers essential information about a vehicle’s title, brand history, odometer readings, theft records, and more.
Check any VIN to uncover potential red flags and make an informed, confident buying decision.
Skipping an NMVTIS check can lead to costly mistakes. Hidden issues like title fraud, odometer rollback, or undisclosed damage can turn a great deal into a financial burden. A quick VIN lookup can help you avoid those risks and buy with confidence.
VinAudit.com is an NMVTIS-approved provider which means it is authorized by the U.S. Department of Justice to deliver official vehicle history reports using data sourced directly from the national NMVTIS database.
What is NMVTIS?
The National Motor Vehicle Title Information System or NMVTIS
is a federally mandated vehicle database established under the Anti-Car Theft Act of 1992 and overseen by the U.S. Department of Justice, under a partnership with third-party operator American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators or AAMVA. It was created to reduce vehicle-related fraud, prevent the resale of stolen or unsafe vehicles, and increase transparency in the used car market.
NMVTIS is the only nationwide system that collects vehicle history data from across the auto industry through mandatory reporting. It compiles information from multiple trusted sources, including:
- State DMV agencies
- Insurance companies
- Salvage yards and auto recyclers
- Law enforcement agencies

What’s Included in an NMVTIS Report?
An NMVTIS report provides a snapshot of a vehicle’s background using verified data from multiple industry sources. It includes key details that can reveal hidden problems and help you make an informed decision before buying.
NMVTIS data include the following critical details:
