To complete Meta Business Verification, you must submit official documents that confirm your business identity, address, and ownership details.

These documents allow Meta to validate your business before enabling features such as WhatsApp Official Business Accounts (OBAs) and advanced ad tools.

Documents You’ll Need

1. Proof of Legal Business Identity

Provide any one of the following:

Provide any one of the following:

• Recent Utility Bill (electricity, water, internet, gas)

Common Reasons for Rejection

• Blurry or cropped scans/screenshots
