Overview

Check a vehicle’s traffic fines in Uruguay by plate across the integrated official sources. In Uruguay fines are concentrated in the unified vehicle collection system (SUCIVE) and in the departmental intendencias; every record returned keeps the intendencia or body, the infraction number, the amount and the status.

Use cases

  • Prepare vehicle reviews in Uruguay
  • Support checks for locally operating fleets
  • Organize records for vehicle transactions

Coverage and availability

Coverage is defined by integrated intendencia and body; every response reports which sources were queried and which did not answer. A fine lookup does not include the vehicle tax (patente de rodados) or other vehicle debts, which have their own registries.

Coverage by jurisdiction

Authorities queried, articles with proprietary data and use cases by province and municipality.

What to consider

  • The plate identifies the vehicle; the response keeps the plate looked up and the department of each record.
  • Fines and vehicle taxes are different concepts; this lookup covers traffic infractions.
  • A source that did not answer is distinguished from one that answered with no fines; information may change between the lookup and the procedure.

Frequently asked questions

Does the API include fines from every department?

It covers the integrated intendencias and bodies, which the response lists; coverage grows department by department according to each customer’s operation.

Does the response show all of a vehicle’s debt?

It shows the traffic infractions published by the integrated sources; the vehicle tax and other debts are looked up in their own registries.

How do fleets and dealers use it?

They look up each plate before a sale, a return or the month’s close, and keep the per-source response as backing for the file.
