The Verafii verify page on a phone: “This report is genuine”, what was checked, and who took the report

Four steps, under a minute

  1. 1Scan the QR codePoint your phone’s camera at the QR code in the report, or open the link printed under it.
  2. 2Read the recordThe page shows who took the report, when, and roughly where (within about 1 km).
  3. 3Check your copyChoose the PDF or video you received. It is checked in your browser and never uploaded.
  4. 4See the answer“Yes — this is the original PDF” means it is exactly the file saved with the report. If anything in it was changed, the page says so.

Questions

Do I need an account or the app?
No. The page opens in any browser.
Is my file uploaded when I check it?
No. Your browser works out the file’s fingerprint and compares it with the one saved with the report. The file stays on your device.
Is a Verafii report tamper-proof?
It is tamper-evident: any change to the PDF makes the check fail, so a changed copy can’t pass as the original.
