Trust Japan Comprehensive Investigation Service Vehicle Number Inquiries

The “Vehicle Number Inquiry,” where we identify an individual from a vehicle number in order to solve a case, is one of Trust Japan’s specialty investigations. Japanese vehicle license plates consist of a place name, one hiragana letter, and four numbers, and these are different on all vehicle plates in Japan. It is possible to extricate various kinds of information from these numbers, such as the target’s name and address, as well as with whom they associate. When solving a case, the vehicle number can be an extremely useful lead.

For ordinary people, it is not possible to identify an individual’s private information from their vehicle number. If you go through the police, they may start a criminal investigation, but as long as there is no suspicion of crime, a vehicle number is not enough evidence to motivate them to act. When Trust Japan undertakes an investigation, we inquire carefully about the case including the vehicle number, and are able to identify the individual through special channels. Also, we already have a list of the vehicle numbers of individuals involved in fraud organizations or other kinds of trouble, so we are able to respond flexibly in our inquiries.
