Vehicle RC PDF
POST

Vehicle RC PDF API — Turn a vehicle registration number into a printable Registration Certificate (RC) document. Send the registration number and receive a pdf_url pointing at a ready-to-print smart-card / A4 PDF of the RC, laid out as the physical certificate and carrying the owner and address, chassis and engine numbers, make and model, body type, colour, fuel and emission norms, seating and weight specifications, cubic capacity, financer and the registering RTO. The response is the document link only — this endpoint sells the certificate, not the fields. If you need the RC data as JSON to read programmatically, use the Vehicle RC Verification endpoint instead. pdf_url is an empty string in the rare case where a document could not be produced, so check it before following the link. Generated documents stay downloadable for a limited time — fetch and store the file promptly rather than holding the link. Built for vehicle onboarding, fleet and dealership records, insurance and loan files, and any workflow that needs a printable RC.
