## How to Verify Your Business on Meta

**Meta Verified for Business** is a paid subscription that helps businesses get better visibility, support, and protection on Meta platforms (like Facebook and Instagram).

### Do You Need Business Verification?

Not every business needs to be verified. You only need to verify your business if:

-   You're trying to use certain Meta tools (e.g., APIs, developer features).
-   You received a notification or email asking you to verify.

### Before You Start

-   Make sure your **business portfolio** (previously called Business Manager) is eligible for verification.
-   You must have **full control** of the business portfolio.
-   **Don't submit false info** – Meta can deny verification or take action on your account if it finds misleading details.

### Steps to Verify Your Business

1Go to the **Security Center** in your Meta Business portfolio.

2Click **"Start verification."** _(You might also see this in Meta Ads Manager, Commerce Manager, or App Developer Dashboard.)_

3**Enter your business details:**

-   Legal business name
-   Address
-   Phone number
-   Website _(must be live and HTTPS-secure)_

4**Confirm the details:**

-   If Meta can match them to public records, select your business from the list.
-   If not, upload documents like a **business license** or **articles of incorporation**.

5**Verify your connection to the business.** Choose one of the following methods:

-   **Email** (must match your domain)
-   **Phone call / text / WhatsApp message**
-   **Domain verification** (you'll need access to your website's hosting or DNS settings)

6Click **Done** once finished.

### What Happens Next?

-   Verification decisions can take **10 minutes to 14 working days**.
-   You'll be notified once it's complete.
-   If approved – you're all set!
-   If you change any business details later, you'll need to verify again.

## FAQs

Q. What if none of the listed business records match mine?

Choose "My business isn't listed" or "None of these match."

Q. Didn't receive a confirmation code by phone?

Request another one, or follow [Meta's troubleshooting guide](https://www.facebook.com/business/help).

Q. Do I need documents if I use monthly ad invoicing?

No. Just submit your credit line info during verification. Make sure the credit line is linked to your business, not shared.
