Worried your degree may not be genuine?
Many students find out years later that a study centre, an agent or a “one-sitting” offer was not what it claimed. If you are unsure about your own certificate, verification tells you where you stand before an employer or embassy finds out.
We treat these cases confidentially and simply report what the university’s records show.

Hiring, promoting or sponsoring a visa? A degree that cannot be verified is a risk to your company. We verify single candidates or bulk lists and send the confirmation straight to you.
Employer verificationFrequently asked questions
How can I verify my degree certificate in India?
Send us the certificate, marksheets and the purpose of verification. FACTS contacts the issuing university or board through the right route (written request, RTI, in-person visit or direct verification) and gives you a report with a clear Green, Red or Orange result.
Can you check whether a degree is genuine or fake?
Yes. The only reliable answer comes from the university that issued it. We obtain the university's confirmation and record exactly what it says, so the result can be shown to an employer, embassy or court.
Do you verify private and deemed universities?
Yes. Private and deemed universities are not covered by the RTI Act in the same way as government universities, so we use written verification or an in-person visit for them.
Who uses this service?
Students and graduates who need proof for a job or visa, employers and HR teams screening candidates, background-check companies, and people who are unsure whether the institute they studied with was genuine.
How long does verification take?
It depends on the university and the route. We tell you the expected timeline for your university before you pay. Priority verification is available when there is a deadline.
