How to verify an exact website address

A step-by-step guide to checking the site you actually visit.

Inspect the address

Read the hostname in your browser carefully. Similar spellings and different extensions can belong to different websites. Copy the complete domain rather than a brand name or advertising description.

Search the registry

Enter the domain or complete certificate number in the verification form. Open the matching certificate and compare the operator, reference and current status. The main domain can differ from a registered alternative you queried.

Review the result

Do not treat a badge screenshot as a live verification. If no record is found, check the spelling and ask for the exact reference. A registry entry describes a certificate record; it does not replace any licence required by the relevant jurisdiction.
