Search By Number
Parcel tracking IDs, patents and other specialized numbers can be
entered into Google's search box for quick access to information about
them. For example, typing a FedEx tracking number will return the latest
information on your package. Other special search by number types include :
• UPS tracking numbers example search: "1Z9999W99999999999"
• FedEx tracking numbers
example search: "999999999999"
• USPS tracking numbers example search: "9999 9999 9999 9999 9999 99"
• Vehicle ID (VIN) numbers example search: "AAAAA999A9AA99999"
• UPC codes example search: "073333531084"
• Telephone area codes example search: "650"
• Patent numbers example search: "patent 5123123"
Remember to put the word "patent" before your patent number.

An airplane's FAA registration number is typically printed on its tail.
• FCC equipment IDs example search: "fcc B4Z-34009-PIR"
Remember to put the word "fcc" before the equipment ID.
