Full Toyota main dealer service history is crucial for resale value, warranty validity, and buyer confidence. Vehicles with complete official service records typically sell for more.

Toyota offers a free MyToyota account (see my.toyota.co.uk) where registered keepers can view service history, book services, and manage vehicle reminders. Digital Service Records are available for vehicles from around 2016 onwards. As the registered keeper (named on the V5C), you can access the service history linked to the VIN. For more detail, log into the Toyota customer portal via browser rather than the app. If you're buying a used Toyota and aren't the registered keeper, or need instant verification, ServiceStamp provides complete dealer service history from 2012 onwards for £9.99.
