REPUVE is a legal-status checkpoint. It is valuable, but it works best when paired with document review and a visual inspection.
Use the vehicle identifiers
Use the VIN/NIV, plate, or other accepted identifiers from the actual car and documents. Avoid copying a number only from a chat message.
Compare the result with the car
Make, model, year, plate, and VIN/NIV should make sense together. A mismatch does not always prove fraud, but it is a reason to slow down.
Document the result
Save the consultation result near your inspection photos and paperwork so you can review everything together before negotiating.
