What Does a BYD VIN Tell You?

Every BYD vehicle has a unique 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that serves as its digital fingerprint. Our BYD VIN decoder reads this number and extracts detailed information directly from Chinese vehicle databases that no other decoder can access:

Vehicle Specifications

Engine type, body style, drivetrain, battery capacity (for EVs), trim level, and factory-installed options

Manufacturing Origin

Exact factory location — Shenzhen Pingshan, Xi'an, or Changsha — encoded in position 11 of the VIN

Build Date & Model Year

Position 10 reveals the model year (N=2022, P=2023, R=2024, S=2025, T=2026)

Accident & Damage History

Chinese provincial traffic authority records and insurance claims — unavailable on Carfax or AutoCheck

Ownership Records

Previous owners, registration history, and transfer dates from Chinese registration databases

Recall Status

Cross-referenced against the SAMR recall database to identify any open or closed recalls

Chinese Registration Records

Province of registration, registration date, deregistration status, and export clearance data

Theft & Security Check

Verified against the Chinese Police Database for stolen or flagged vehicle status

2

Driver's Door Frame (B-Pillar)

Sticker located at door latch height on the B-pillar when you open the driver's door

Stamped on the firewall or chassis rail inside the engine compartment

Frequently Asked Questions — BYD VIN Decoder

Is BYD VIN decoding free?

Yes. Basic vehicle information including specifications, manufacturing origin, and model details is completely free. Full history reports that include accident records, ownership history, and recalls from Chinese databases are available as paid reports.

What does LVV mean in a BYD VIN?

LVV is BYD's World Manufacturer Identifier (WMI) code. "L" indicates the vehicle was manufactured in China, and "VV" identifies BYD Auto Co., Ltd. All BYD passenger vehicles from the Shenzhen plant carry the LVV prefix.

Can I check if a BYD was in an accident in China?

Yes. Our reports include Chinese provincial traffic authority data and insurance claims — information unavailable through NMVTIS, DVLA, or any European vehicle checker. We are the only platform with direct access to these Chinese sources.

Where is the VIN on a BYD Atto 3?

Three locations: (1) dashboard through the windscreen on the driver's side; (2) driver's door B-pillar sticker; (3) engine bay firewall stamp. All three must match. You can also find it on registration documents and insurance papers.

Does it work for BYD electric vehicles?

Yes. We support all BYD electric and plug-in hybrid models including Atto 3, Han EV, Seal, Tang EV, Dolphin, Seagull, and Sealion. Our decoder reads battery capacity, drivetrain type, and EV-specific data from the VIN.

How do I check for BYD recalls?

Enter your BYD VIN in our decoder. We cross-reference your VIN against the SAMR (State Administration for Market Regulation) recall database, which lists all official BYD recalls including VIN ranges and recall status.

What BYD models are supported?

All BYD passenger vehicles: Atto 3 (Yuan Plus), Han EV, Han DM, Seal, Seal U, Tang EV, Tang DM, Song Plus EV, Song Plus DM, Song Pro, Yuan Pro, Dolphin, Seagull, Sealion 6, Sealion 7, Frigate 07, Yangwang U8, Yangwang U9, Atto 2, Qin Plus, e2, e3, T3 van, and BYD bus models.

Can I decode a BYD VIN from another country?

Yes. If the vehicle was manufactured in China (VIN starts with L), we can access its full manufacturing history regardless of the country where it is currently registered. This works for BYD vehicles sold in Europe, Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, and Latin America.
