Verification

Also known as: GBP verification · verify listing

Verification is how Google confirms that a business is real and that the person managing the profile is authorised to do so. Until a profile is verified, it may not appear publicly or may be limited.

What this means for your profile

Verification is a gate, not a formality. The details you submit must match the business exactly to pass.

Not sure how this applies to your profile?

The free 2-minute assessment maps your situation to the right next step — or talk to a specialist.
