Enter any Mississippi license plate number and get the VIN, title status, accident history, and market value in under 30 seconds
Looking for the VIN?
Here is there you’ll find it:
A Mississippi license plate lookup is a procedure that provides a VIN and vehicle history based on a license plate number. This check allows you to examine the car's past, including damage, titles, mileage, and more.
Plate-to-VIN Match
EpicVIN instantly resolves a Mississippi plate to the vehicle’s 17-character vehicle identification number - no manual VIN decoding required.
Instant Check
We cross-check NMVTIS and trusted partner records for Mississippi vehicles, surfacing title brands, registration events, theft/salvage activity, and inspection history.
Vehicle History Report
Get a quick snapshot for Mississippi vehicles: damage, title status, mileage readings (incl. inspection results where available), and open recalls - without exposing personal owner details.
Expect to see the VIN, basic vehicle specs, and any reported incidents (e.g., accidents, salvage titles, or recalls). Private owner details are not included, keeping the process legal and privacy-safe.
Reports don’t reveal personal identifiers (e.g., the owner’s name or address, live ALPR location, driver’s license or insurance numbers). The DPPA and applicable state privacy law restrict PII access; results are for vehicle information only and not for FCRA-regulated (Fair Credit Reporting Act) decisions.
A Mississippi license plate lookup uses the tag number to query public vehicle records. Enter the plate and select Mississippi; EpicVIN resolves the VIN and compiles the record from NMVTIS and partner sources (including inspection history where available). This license plate information helps compare listings and spot risk indicators quickly.
Works with standard, personalized, and specialty Mississippi plates; temporary tags may not return a VIN until registered. Use our plate finder to run a plate number search or license plate search, then continue with a VIN check via our license plate lookup (a fast database-backed service).

|---|---|---|
| Accidents/Damage | No statewide official statistics | Hidden damage, reduced safety, and resale value. |

The Mississippi Department of Revenue (via county tax collectors) can release a registration record for permitted purposes, but the process is slower. EpicVIN provides an instant, multi-source vehicle history (NMVTIS title/brand/lien) with vital information for pre-purchase checks.
Trust the data, then verify the details - use NHTSA’s recall lookup to confirm any critical flags before you decide.Alex Black, CMO & auto expert, EpicVIN
In Mississippi, license plate costs are part of your total vehicle registration at the county tax collector’s office. There, you pay fixed state fees plus local taxes based on vehicle weight and value. Mississippi license plates follow standard sizes, show the state name and often the state seal, and come as standard license plates, personalized plates, and specialty plates for commercial vehicles, military plates, and other motor vehicles. Key resources are the Motor Vehicle Registration and Title (https://www.dor.ms.gov/tagstitles/motor-vehicle-licensing-faqs) page and Registration Forms & e-Services (https://www.dor.ms.gov/tags-and-titles) page.
Are two plates required in MS? Mississippi issues one license plate (rear) with up to two decals for renewals.
Fines: Obstructing the tag characters can carry a fine of up to $25, and such display problems can be cited as traffic violations. Late renewal penalty: 5% after the 15th day of the month following expiration, +5% for each additional 30 days, capped at 25%; at 25% no Legislative Tag Credit.
