How do you find the car owners' details through the number plate?

Answer 1

If you mean the tag or license plate, you go to the Secretary of State's office, or the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and request a tag search. This could cost you anywhere from $15 to a couple hundred. And, you may not be able to obtain this information in many states unless you are a licensed collector, skip tracer, private investigator, or a lawyer.

The other option you have is to pay the fee of a skip tracer or private investigator and have them obtain the information for you.

If you mean the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), you'll have to contact a skip tracer or private investigator who has access to the appropriate software or network subscriber connection. This will again cost you a fee of $75 to several hundred dollars. You might be able to locate one who will do it for a lesser fee if this is the only information you require.

Be aware that using the information for anything other than legally recognized reasons may land you in front of a judge defending yourself against criminal charges.
