Meta Verified eligibility checker

You must be 18+, have a government ID matching your profile name, a complete profile with a face photo and bio, a real posting history, two-factor authentication enabled, and an account in good standing. There is no minimum follower count. The most common reason applications fail is the profile name not matching the ID.

The usual causes are a profile name that does not match your government ID, poor ID photo quality, a missing or non-face profile photo, 2FA not enabled, or an account that is too new. Most are fixable. Essentras diagnoses exactly what went wrong and prepares a corrected reapplication.

None for Meta Verified, there is no follower minimum; it is based on identity, not fame. The free legacy/notability badge does effectively require notability (credible independent press coverage), but the paid Meta Verified subscription is open to any eligible individual or business.

Meta charges about $14.99/mo on mobile (around $11.99 on the web), per profile, per platform, with higher business tiers. That subscription is something you pay Meta directly. Essentras's application-assistance service is a separate one-time fee for accounts that risk rejection or want eligibility optimization and rejection recovery. Simple cases can apply themselves for free, and we will tell you if that is you.

No, and anyone guaranteeing a verified badge is misleading you. Meta makes the decision and can deny applications, including paid ones. What we guarantee is honest eligibility assessment, profile and application optimization, and a corrected reapplication if you were rejected. We never fake documents or claim insider access.
