In Florida, when applying for a Florida title for a used motor vehicle for the first time, the owner is obliged to sign a sworn statement confirming the accuracy of the vehicle identification number (VIN) and the odometer reading. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles requires these to be filled out by a Florida notary in-person before going to the tax collector for registration.

Furthermore, the VIN must be physically checked and certified by an authorized person. Notaries public are among those authorized to perform this certification. To facilitate this process, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles has provided a specific form.

Florida Dept of Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles also has an online tool for doing VIN Search here.
