The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of your vehicle can be obtained from the
registration, title or the actual vehicle. Generally, the VIN is made up of numbers
and letters and is 17 characters long. When filling out federal tax form 2290, be
sure to use the VIN for the vehicle and not from the trailer.
Why do I need to put my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on Form 2290 Schedule
1?
The IRS cannot stamp a Form 2290 Schedule 1 without a VIN. And, without the stamped
Form 2290 Schedule 1 you will not be able to register your truck. By writing the
VIN on both the top and bottom copies of your Form 2290 Schedule 1, the IRS will
have a back-up copy on file in case you lose your original copy.
