The idea of Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) was started in 1954 in the United States. There was no standard form at that time, and so each manufacturer had his or her version. The US government, car manufacturers, and the automobile manufacturers’ association collaborated to establish a uniform system of identifying cars using VINs.
By 1981, a worldwide standard was proposed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that required all vehicles on the road to have a 17-character VIN. Letters O, I, and Q were omitted in order not to confuse them with the number 0, number 1, and number 9.
The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) in the United States assigns each world manufacturer an identifier (WMI). All countries have their designated bodies to coordinate WMI code assignments. In India, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is charged with giving WMI codes to vehicle manufacturers upon approval by SAE International.
The first three characters of a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) are the World Manufacturer Identifier or the WMI. These characters recognize the manufacturer and the country in which the vehicle was made. It serves as a digital signature for all car manufacturers globally.
A Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a distinctive 17-character number used to denote each motor vehicle. It is also referred to as the chassis or frame number and serves as a vehicle's fingerprint—no two vehicles have the same VIN.
BIS charges a fee based on the product type. The minimum fee is generally Rs. 5,000 plus applicable taxes.
If you are a vehicle manufacturer or importer and want to obtain a WMI code in India, Presto Laboratories can assist with the entire process—from document preparation to communication with BIS and SAE International.
