# Verified Accounts

On Jeti, account verification is used to eliminate confusion about the identity of a particular public figure, brand, or celebrity. Once an account is verified, you can be sure that the account's identity is authentic.

A verified badge<img src="/files/-MDfmiwpklnf1QuzGc6n" alt="" data-size="line">will appear next to the verified account's name everywhere on Jeti. Verified badges do not imply an endorsement by Jeti.

## Eligibility

Only accounts with a high likelihood of being impersonated are made verified on Jeti. Because of this, only some public figures, brands, or celebrities have a verified badge.&#x20;

If your account is eligible, you may have already received a notice from Jeti about becoming verified. If not, you may apply if you meet the following criteria:

* Your account must be active for at least 90 days, have a complete profile (including a profile picture, name, and bio), and have at least one post.
* If any post or profile content is observed as violating our [Terms of Service](/policies-and-legal/terms.md), [Community Guidelines](/policies-and-legal/community-guidelines.md), or any of the [potential reasons for verification removal](/old/accounts/verified-accounts.md#potential-reasons-for-verification-removal), your application will be rejected.
* Your account must represent an authentic and highly searched for entity, such as a well-known brand or person. Each entity is allowed one verified account per language.

## Applying for Verification

If your account meets the above criteria, you may submit an application [here](https://go.jeti.app/get-verified). Applications that do not provide valid documentation will be rejected.

#### Public Figures and Celebrities

Personal accounts must provide government-issued identification that corresponds to the identity of the account they wish to verify. If using an alias, follow-up documentation may be requested. Unless otherwise stated, your profile picture must prominently display the face of the individual on the provided photo identification.

#### Businesses, Brands, and Organizations

Organizations must provide documentation that proves their ownership or management of a legal business entity, such as an Articles of Incorporation. The account profile picture must display the logo, or a variation of the logo, of the organization requesting verification.

## Loss of verification status

Jeti reserves the right to remove the verified status of a user at any time. This may happen without notice, and previously verified accounts may not be eligible for re-verification.

#### Potential reasons for verification removal

* Changing account details to intentionally mislead others
* Violating Jeti's [Terms of Service](/policies-and-legal/terms.md)
* Violating Jeti's [Community Guidelines](/policies-and-legal/community-guidelines.md)
