Verify your organization

Updated: Mar 31, 2026
As part of our ongoing efforts to provide a secure platform, all Meta Quest developers must undergo developer organization verification. This process ensures that developer accounts are associated with legitimate organizations. Every developer organization that wishes to submit an app to the Meta Horizon Store must complete this verification.
Developer organizations are required to verify either an admin’s identity or their business before they can publish or update apps. Failing to verify will prevent the organization from publishing, updating apps, or submitting Data Use Checkup (DUC) recertification.

Choosing a verification path

There are two ways to verify your organization. For most developers, especially independent developers and small studios, Admin Verification is the fastest and simplest path. It requires only a government-issued ID and is typically completed within minutes.
  • Admin Verification (recommended for most developers): Verifies your identity using a government-issued ID. This is the quickest way to get verified and start publishing.
  • Business Verification: Verifies your organization as a legal business entity using business documentation such as incorporation certificates or business licenses. Choose this path if you have an established business entity with formal documentation readily available.

Getting started

If you are an admin or an authorized representative for your organization, you can start verification from the Developer Dashboard⁠. If your organization is unverified, you’ll see notifications in the Developer Dashboard prompting you to start verification. On the Organization verification page, you’ll be able to complete either verification process.

Admin verification

Admin Verification is the recommended path for most developers. It uses your government-issued ID to confirm your identity and is typically the fastest way to complete verification.
  1. Open your browser and navigate to the Developer Dashboard⁠.
  2. From the left-side navigation, click Org Verification.
  3. Scroll down and click Add myself under Admin verification.
  4. Read the Responsible party agreement. This confirms that you are authorized to represent your organization and can receive communications on its behalf. If you agree, click I agree, and then Continue.
  5. Click Start verification. You will be redirected to Meta’s identity verification portal to complete the process.
As an admin, you can verify up to five organizations at a time. If you have reached the limit and need to verify another organization, consider the following options:
  • Remove existing verification: You can remove your admin verification for one of your current organizations.
  • Use business verification: You can use business verification to verify the new organization.
  • Get help from another admin: You can ask another admin to verify the organization.

Business verification

Business Verification confirms your organization as a registered legal business entity. Choose this path if you have your business documentation (such as incorporation certificates or business licenses) readily available. If you’re an independent developer or a small studio without formal business registration, Admin Verification is likely the better option.
  1. Open your browser and navigate to the Developer Dashboard⁠.
  2. From the left-side navigation, click Org Verification.
  3. Scroll down and click Start verification under Business verification.
  4. Read and follow the instructions in the Verify your business modal. When you’re ready to continue, click Get started.
  5. Choose the country where your business is located, and then click Next.
  6. Add the required business details including name, address, and phone number, as well as any optional details you’d like to provide like website and tax ID. When you’re finished, click Next.
  7. Select the correct business from the list of businesses generated from public records, or select My business isn’t listed if you don’t see your organization on the list.
  8. Review your business details and click Next.
  9. Select a contact method and choose how you want to receive your verification code, either through email, phone call, or text message (SMS).
  10. Enter your verification code.
  11. Click Submit.
Once you submit your verification, you’ll receive a notification when the review is complete. Most verifications are processed within 48 hours, though some may take longer.
