The Motor Carrier VIN Lookup API allows detailed searches using the vehicle identification number (VIN) as the main parameter. By entering a VIN, users can access crucial information about the associated carrier, including data such as the legal name of the company, its DOT number, and its type of operation (interstate or intrastate).
This functionality is especially valuable to users in the transportation industry, as it allows them to verify a carrier's legitimacy and better understand its operational capabilities. By using the VIN, the API provides details about the carrier's fleet of vehicles, as well as the number of units and drivers it has in operation. This is critical in assessing a carrier's ability to handle specific loads and comply with industry regulations.
The API also indicates whether the carrier is authorized to transport hazardous materials, which is essential for those working with this type of cargo. This information helps users ensure that they are choosing carriers that meet the required safety standards.
In addition, contact details, such as phone number and email address, allow direct communication with the carrier, facilitating cargo management and logistical problem solving. This improves the efficiency of transport operations, as users can quickly connect with carriers for consultation or coordination.
The API also includes historical information, such as the date the carrier's data was last updated and the total mileage logged, providing insight into the carrier's experience and activity in the industry. This data is crucial for customers looking to evaluate a carrier's reliability and experience.
In summary, the Motor Carrier VIN Lookup API, by using the VIN as a search parameter, provides a powerful tool for accessing detailed and up-to-date carrier information. This functionality allows users to make informed decisions when selecting carriers, thus ensuring efficiency and safety in their transportation operations.
To use this endpoint you must indicate a VIN in the parameter.

Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world’s most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]
Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.
The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.
Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]
Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the ‘X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.
To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1000 requests per month, this header will display 1000.
The ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset’ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3600, it means 3600 seconds are left until the limit resets.
Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.
You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]
