| Location | |
| Vehicle identification number (Bentley VIN Number) | – in the vehicle stamped/punched |
| – on the type plate | |
| – on the barcode sticker | |
| – on the technical service sticker | |
| Bentley Production identification number (PKN) | – on the technical service sticker |
| Bentley Engine Number | – on the engine block |
| – on a sticker on the engine block | |
| Bentley Gearbox Number | – on the bell housing |

Width: 32 mm
A Bentley metal-type plate is riveted onto the bodywork at both ends.
Type plate Bentley Asian space type plate
Bentley Production Bentley Identification Number (PKN):
The Bentley production identification number is an internal control number.
| e.g.: | 46-1-0249 | |
| 46 | = | Week of year |
| 1 | = | Day of the week owned |
| 0249 | = | Serial number history |
Week of year:
The 1st and 2nd digits of the Bentley production identification number represent the week of the current year (not the week of the model year).
Day of the week:
| 1 = Monday until 6 = Saturday вин fuel |
| 0 =Exact product day certified вин not given |
| 7 = Vehicle planned at a later stage gt |
The year of construction cannot be deduced from the production identification number. The type plates are on the valve cover.
Bentley VIN Number
Bentley VIN Number Location
On the engine compartment bulkhead
On all Bentley passenger cars except the Continental Series
The FIN is smashed in England (Crewe) on the metal by hand into the raw state coach and is varnished only later.
Bentley Continental Flying Spur / GT- Series / GTC
The FIN is milled in England (Crewe) on the metal by machine carved and is provided with a protective foil.
Bentley VIN Visible Location
In addition, a so-called ‘visible VIN’ on a small plastic plate or on a black film is located on the left side of the dashboard. It is visible from the outside. The visible VIN Bentley Arnage is on the left-hand side of the windscreen above the dashboard.

The Bentley VIN numbers are stamped on in a straight line. The VIN on all models Betley always has an asterisk at both ends. The asterisks are always identical. All characters of the VIN are the same size and the same distance apart.
Some examples of Bentley VINs::
The Bentley Arnage Series and Azure, Brooklands VIN is stamped on by hand in England (Crewe).
Bentley Continental Flying Spur VIN and GT – Series VIN, GTC VIN Number is applied by machine in England (Crewe)

Bentley Production Bentley Identification Number (PKN):
The Bentley production identification number is an internal control number.
| e.g.: | 46-1-0249 | |
| 46 | = | Week of year |
| 1 | = | Day of the week owned |
| 0249 | = | Serial number history |
Week of year:
The 1st and 2nd digits of the Bentley production identification number represent the week of the current year (not the week of the model year).
Day of the week:
| 1 = Monday until 6 = Saturday вин fuel |
| 0 =Exact product day certified вин not given |
| 7 = Vehicle planned at a later stage gt |
The year of construction cannot be deduced from the production identification number. The type plates are on the valve cover.
