About Kia Digital Service Records

Since around 2012, Kia dealers have recorded their work digitally in the manufacturer's central system. That means a Kia's dealer service history is stored electronically and linked to its VIN, alongside or in place of the stamped logbook that could be lost, damaged or forged.

These digital records are more reliable than paper stamps because they're tamper-proof and permanently tied to the vehicle. ServiceStamp retrieves them from Kia's dealer network, giving you verified proof of the vehicle's service history.

Kia Service History FAQs

How often should my Kia be serviced?

Every 15,000 km or 12 months for most models, and every 10,000 km for turbo-petrol engines. Kia sets fixed service intervals, shorter for its turbo-petrol engines. Follow the service indicator and the schedule in your logbook.

What does a Kia service history report show?
