Japan Lookup

NZ Fleet

Query New Zealand vehicle fleet data. This data is sourced from NZTA's New Zealand Vehicle Fleet Open Data sets and provides point-in-time snapshots of all vehicles currently registered in New Zealand.

MCP Integration

CarJam exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so AI agents can retrieve vehicle data using the same API products you already have access to. All requests are billed against your Developer API key.

Owner Check

Confirm whether a person or company is the current registered owner of a vehicle in the New Zealand Motor Vehicle Register.

Extra vehicle info

Everything we hold about a vehicle's model, beyond what the register carries:

Throttling

CarJam limits how fast a Development Connection may call the APIs, so that one busy integration cannot slow the register lookups down for everyone else. The limit is generous for ordinary use; you will only meet it when you fire requests in tight parallel loops or replay a backlog without pausing.
