Official DVLA data

Vehicle data provided through Gorilla Forms.

Gorilla Forms connects securely to DVLA’s official Vehicle Enquiry Service and provides the public vehicle details directly inside the form. Respondents simply enter a registration—there is no API setup for them to manage. Registrations stay out of lookup URLs, and the service does not return registered keeper or owner details.

Standard, Pro & Enterprise
