Where is the VIN number in Volvo XC60 (II [2018-2021])?

This guide shows the VIN (chassis number) locations on the Volvo XC60 II, produced between 2018–2021, including the easy-to-scan label and the hidden chassis stamp under the carpet.

Chassis Number Locations

B-pillar (Door Jamb) VIN Label

• Where to look: Open the front passenger door (typical for LHD) and look on the lower section of the B-pillar (the post between front and rear doors). You’ll see a black sticker/label with the VIN plus weight ratings/paint codes.
• Access: Easy access—just open the door. If the label is dusty, wipe it clean so the characters/barcode are sharp.
• Note: The example video is RHD, so the label is shown on the passenger side for that vehicle; on LHD (EU/US) it’s commonly on the front passenger-side door jamb, but check the other side if it’s missing.
• Tip: If the sticker is at an awkward angle, scan the VIN with your phone camera to avoid misreading similar characters (like 8/B or 5/S).

Floor VIN Stamp (Under Front Seat / Carpet Flap)

• Where to look: On the floor pan under the front seat, the VIN is stamped into the metal chassis cross-member. There’s a pre-cut carpet flap (with foam backing) you must lift to expose the stamped metal.
• Access: Slide the seat to improve working room, then pry/lift the carpet flap and aim a light into the recess. Expect dust/grit around the edges.
• Note: Don’t rely on “driver side” wording here—this stamp is commonly on the right-hand floor rail. For LHD cars that often means passenger side, but if you don’t find it there, check the opposite side as well.
• Tip: This spot is naturally dark under the seat—use ScanVin’s flashlight + OCR scan so you don’t have to contort yourself and manually write down the characters.

Windshield VIN Plate (Dashboard)

• Where to look: At the very bottom corner of the windshield, where the glass meets the dashboard. You read it from outside the car looking in.
• Access: No tools—just stand outside and look through the glass. Move the wiper blades or clear debris if they block the plate.
• Note: The video shows an RHD vehicle where the visible plate appears on the passenger side for that market; placement can vary by regulation, so check both lower corners if needed.
• Tip: Windshield glare is the main problem—use the VIN scanner to capture it instantly at an angle that avoids reflections instead of re-typing what you think you saw.

Common Problems & Troubleshooting

• Under-seat stamp is hard to see: It sits in a shadowed recess and often has dust—slide the seat back, lift the carpet flap fully, and use a flashlight for a clean read.
• Windshield VIN glare/reflections: Sunlight and glass reflections can hide digits—change viewing angle, shade the area with your body, and clean the glass.
• Door-jamb label issues: If the B-pillar sticker is peeled, faded, or missing, treat it as unreliable and confirm the VIN against the stamped floor VIN.
