Complete transparency on how JP Sheet retrieves authentic Japanese auction records — what we connect to, how we verify, what we deliver, and why our 44+ years of Japanese automotive industry experience matter for buyers worldwide.
Most competitors claim "auction house data". We do more than that. Our 500+ connections span four distinct types of Japanese vehicle data sources — giving us coverage no single-source verification service can match.
When you enter a chassis number on JP Sheet, four things happen in seconds. This is the same process whether you're checking a Toyota Corolla in Karachi or a Land Cruiser in Nairobi.
Every report is delivered as a permanent lifetime link with all available data from our 500+ sources. No expiration. No login walls. Share freely with dealers, banks, mechanics, family — anyone who needs to see proof.
We didn't start as a verification service. We started as Japanese vehicle importers in 1982 — and that's exactly why we know auction data so well.
From Pakistan to New Zealand, Kenya to the UK — buyers across 66 countries use JP Sheet to verify Japanese imports before purchase.

Most competitors won't tell you where their data comes from. Some claim "millions of records" without explaining where. Others claim "since [year]" without telling you what they were actually doing then. We do the opposite.
Common questions about where our data comes from, how we verify it, and how our 44+ years of industry experience translate into the reports you receive.
JP Sheet maintains 500+ live data connections across Japan: 200+ auction houses (USS, JU, AUCNET, TAA, JAA, HAA and more), 100+ dealer inventory panels, 50+ salvage and accident stock networks, and 150+ private stock sources. All connections are live, allowing real-time chassis lookups against the original auction records.
When you enter a chassis number, JP Sheet queries all 500+ connected data sources simultaneously, matches your chassis against the original auction records, and pulls back the complete history — auction grade, mileage verification, accident history, damage diagram, equipment list and inspector notes. The full report is delivered as a permanent lifetime link.
The archive contains 20+ million verified auction records accumulated since 2005, with approximately 4 million new records added each year. Coverage spans virtually every Japanese vehicle that has passed through public auction, dealer inventory, salvage networks or private export channels in that period.
JP Sheet was founded in 1982 as a Japanese vehicle import/export business. After 23 years of building direct relationships with Japan's auction networks, dealers and salvage yards, JP Sheet transitioned to dedicated auction sheet verification in 2005. That gives us 44+ years in the Japanese automotive industry with 21+ years specifically focused on verification.
Not by us. Every field on a JP Sheet report is pulled directly from the source database — auction grade, mileage, damage diagram, inspector notes. We never alter the data. If a chassis comes back as Grade R or shows accident history, that is exactly what the auction inspector recorded. Manipulation would defeat the whole purpose of verification.
Older vehicles, regional auctions, and certain private inventories occasionally fall outside the live database. In those cases our Manual Search service ($35) has a researcher contact the original auction house or private source directly — with a full refund if no record is found. This is the same 23-year network of relationships we built before 2005.
The 500+ data connections are live — they update as auctions, dealer inventories and salvage stocks update. New auction records typically appear in the database within hours of the auction ending. The archive of historical records is static (those auctions already happened), so what we add over time is new auction activity.
Yes. Public auctions are only one of the four source types we cover. Dealer panels (cars listed direct by Japanese dealers), salvage and accident stock networks (insurance write-offs, recovered theft), and private stocks (export channels and private sales) together make up the other 300 of our 500+ data sources. If a Japanese vehicle was sold or recorded anywhere, we usually have it.
Enter the chassis number. Our 500+ connections check it against every available source. Complete report delivered in seconds — accident history, real mileage, auction grade, photos, inspector notes.
