With a few clicks, Škoda owners can now create a Digital Certificate with verified details on their vehicle’s condition and service history within warranty time. This file is an official document from the manufacturer, compiling data from various sources, including the vehicle’s electronic service book.

With the help of the digital certificate, Škoda customers will have reliable information about their vehicle at their fingertips without having to visit a dealer or pay additional fees. The service is available free of charge on all European Škoda vehicles where Škoda Connect is offered. This website provides an overview of the features available in each country.

According to Škoda:

"The Digital Vehicle Certificate substantially increases transparency for all parties when a Škoda customer is selling a used car and thereby increasing its resale value. The document includes the vehicle identification, technical specifications, an overview of standard and optional equipment for buyers and sellers. Up-to-date mileage and mileage history, any prepaid service and warranty extensions, as well as a comprehensive service history are also provided."

This includes not only regular maintenance, but also any warranty repairs. The post-warranty history will later be integrated into the digital certificate service. Car owners can create the file and export it as a PDF from the Škoda Connect web portal. All they have to do is visit the portal, log in, click on Digital Certificate and download the PDF. After that, they can send or share it according to their needs. Škoda owners can generate this certificate at any time and as often as they wish.

What's interesting is that the mileage history, for example, is constantly updated - not just during service. The mileage is recorded every week from the moment the remote access function is activated as part of Škoda Connect.
