Where is the VIN number in Ferrari 812 (2020-2020)?

This guide covers the VIN (chassis number) locations on the Ferrari 812 produced between 2020 and 2020, with the easiest-to-check spots first.

Chassis Number Locations

1) Windshield (Dashboard VIN Plate)

• Where to look: Stand outside the car and look through the windshield at the lower left (driver-side on LHD) corner of the dashboard. The 17-character VIN is shown on a metal plate riveted to the dash structure.
• Access: Low difficulty. No tools needed, but reflections off the steep windshield are common.
• Note: On RHD cars, this windshield VIN typically appears on the lower right side instead.
• Tip: If glare washes out characters, change your viewing angle and scan it directly with your phone so you don’t misread similar-looking digits/letters through the glass.

2) Driver’s Door Jamb / B-Pillar Certification Label

• Where to look: Open the driver’s door and inspect the B-pillar on the latch side (not the hinge side). Look for a black Manufacturer Certification Label sticker showing the VIN plus build month/year and tire info.
• Access: Medium difficulty. The label is often vertical/low, and dark trim (including carbon sill areas) can leave it in shadow—use your phone light if needed.
• Note: On RHD cars, this label is typically on the right-side B-pillar.
• Tip: If the sticker is in deep shadow or you’re fighting awkward angles, use the VIN scanner with flashlight support to capture it cleanly without squinting or typing errors.

3) Engine Bay (Chassis VIN Stamp)

• Where to look: Open the hood and inspect the right-hand side chassis rail (passenger side on LHD), near the shock tower/strut top area. The VIN is stamped into the aluminum frame, often within a rectangular machined/indented area.
• Access: High difficulty. Tight packaging and an awkward lean over the fender are typical. The stamp can be obscured by dirt/grime—wipe it carefully with a clean cloth before attempting to read it.
• Note: This is a key verification point when you suspect tampering. Even on RHD, the stamp is commonly still found on the right-side chassis rail—confirm visually.
• Tip: If the stamp is faint or dirty, clean the area and scan using High Contrast AI mode to pull characters out of low-contrast metal stamping.

No publishable video link (with a usable YouTube URL/ID) was provided in the inspection data, so I can’t embed an official thumbnail here. If you share the YouTube link, I can add the exact video embed in the required format.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting

• Windshield glare / polarized lenses: The 812’s windshield angle can reflect the sky or dash; remove polarized sunglasses and change the camera angle to reduce washout.
• Engine-bay stamp hard to read: Dirt on an exposed chassis stamp is normal—wipe first, then re-check from a slightly higher angle with the phone light on.
• Sticker validity warning: Door-jamb labels can be replaced—always cross-check the door sticker VIN against the windshield VIN and the chassis stamp before buying.

Also note a common Ferrari pitfall: some engine-bay plates show a Vehicle Assembly Number that looks official but is not the 17-character VIN—don’t scan that shorter number by mistake.
