Where to find the VIN

On most cars the VIN is visible at the base of the windscreen (driver side) and on a label in the driver-side door opening; check your registration document too.

China-spec vs export-spec

BYD uses the Seal name on several different cars — Seal 05 DM-i, Seal 06 DM-i/EV/GT, Seal 07, Seal 08 and the Seal U SUV (Song Plus in China) — which do not share parts with the Seal EV sedan. Confirm the exact model; the VIN is essential. China-spec and export cars differ in charging hardware and software.
