The paper discusses the problems of vehicle identification, especially the assorted identification labels (homologation, data, type, equipment labels, secondary identification labels), their history and security using various security elements (micro-text, optical variable elements, elements that are visible only under ultraviolet light, etc.) against counterfeiting or alteration. We can register changes on the part of the manufacturer in the identification markings both in terms of protection of the key identifier Vehicle Identification Number, also in the protection of all sorts of labels on the vehicle, which among other things carry other (significant) information and information about the identity of the vehicle or information about the technical or administrative characteristics closely related to a specific type of vehicle. Based on this information, it is then possible to identify the vehicle in terms of make (type) or individually. If we know the primary production method of the identification marks (labels, stickers, “stamped” serial identification numbers, etc.), including their security elements, we can express qualified opinions about their genuineness or potential counterfeiting or alteration.
