Citroën VIN Check

0 / 17

17 characters — letters and numbers only

Citroën vehicles use WMI VF7 in France (not Renault's VF1 family). Positions 4–5 encode the PSA model family — for example YC is Jumper (Sevel Ducato twin), RC/DC are C5, FC is C3.

European Citroën VINs treat position 9 as part of the type string; our decoder marks the ISO check digit as N/A and maps known plants including Sevel Sud (Atessa) for Jumper.

How to Read a Citroën VIN

Start with WMI VF7 (or VS7 Spain). Read positions 4–5 for the model family. Position 10 is model year; position 11 is the assembly plant (2 = Sevel Sud / Atessa for many Jumpers).
