Instant report · Permanent link · 500+ data sources
Anyone can hand you an auction sheet — or a Photoshopped copy of one. The only way to be sure is to pull the original record from the auction house yourself, using the car’s chassis number. Here’s exactly how, start to finish.
The process
How to verify a sheet, in 4 steps
Standard verification takes under a minute. You need one thing to start: the car’s chassis number (we’ll show you where to find it next).
1
Enter the chassis number
On the homepage, type the full chassis number and press Verify.
2
We search 500+ sources
Our system checks Japan’s auction databases instantly and finds the record.
3
Confirm it’s your car
Before you pay, we show the make, model and year. Check it matches.
4
Pay and get the report
Pay securely; your report and a permanent link arrive instantly by email.
⚡
The standard report is delivered the moment payment clears — no waiting. Translation and Deeper Scan follow shortly after (about 30 minutes on average).
Before you start
How to find your chassis number
The chassis number (also called the frame number) is the car’s unique ID. You can find it in any of these places:
📄
On your registration or import papers
The most reliable source — it’s printed on the official documents.
🚪
A sticker inside the driver’s door frame
Open the door and look at the body pillar where the latch sits.
🚗
On the dashboard, through the windscreen
Visible from outside on the lower corner of the dash on many cars.
💬
Ask the dealer or seller
Request the chassis number before you pay anything for the car.
Two common spots on the car — plus your registration papers.
A chassis number is a short code of letters, a hyphen and numbers. It looks like this:
Double-check the number before you pay. If you enter the wrong chassis and receive the wrong car’s report, we can’t refund it — that counts as user error. One quick check saves the hassle.
What you’ll pay
Choose what you need
Start with the report and add more only if you want it. Every tier pulls the same authentic record — the difference is how much we explain and dig.
Translation tells you what the sheet says. The Deeper Scan tells you what it means — an audit that surfaces the risks a quick read would miss. It runs a 9-point check:
On top of the audit, you get a confidence score (0–100) across documentation, frame, mileage and market; a USD market valuation (clean example vs this car vs salvage floor); a full auction-history timeline; a critical-issues panel with repair costs; and 3–5 recommended next steps tailored to the car.

If nothing comes up
“Record not found”? Use Manual Search
A few cars don’t appear in the standard online database — usually older vehicles, personal imports, or cars from smaller regional auctions. That doesn’t mean the record is gone.
📧
We contact the auction house directly
Our team searches their private archives by hand for your chassis.
⏳
Delivered in 24–48 hours
Translation and Deeper Scan are included automatically, at no extra charge.
💰
Full refund if nothing is found
$35 up front, refunded 100% if no record exists. All or nothing.
The standard report is delivered instantly — within seconds of payment. Translation and Deeper Scan average about 30 minutes (12 hours maximum) during Japan business hours. Manual Search takes 24–48 hours.
What if my chassis shows “not found”?
Use Manual Search ($35). Our team contacts the Japanese auction houses directly and searches their private archives. If nothing is found, you get a full refund.
Can I verify any Japanese car?
If the car was auctioned in Japan at any of our 500+ data sources, we can find the record. Very old vehicles (25+ years) may need a Manual Search.
What if I enter the wrong chassis number?
Contact support immediately by WhatsApp or email. If the correct report hasn’t been delivered yet, we may be able to fix it. Once a report is delivered, we can’t refund a wrong-chassis order, since that’s user error.
Can I share my report with someone else?
Yes. Your permanent report link can be shared with anyone — dealer, mechanic, buyer or insurer — with no login required.
Is my payment secure?
Yes. Card payments are processed by Stripe (PCI-DSS Level 1), and JP Sheet never stores your card details. You can also pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay or PayPal.
I didn’t get my report email — what now?
Check your spam or junk folder first. Then sign in to JP Sheet with the same email — your report is saved under My Reports. If it’s still missing, contact support and we’ll resend it.
