on 31 Jul, 2026

What Are Self-Verification Services?

Self-verification allows individuals to check their own records before an employer, university, financial institution, or other organization conducts a background check.

Instead of waiting for someone else to discover an issue, individuals can proactively confirm that their information is accurate and authentic.

What Can You Verify?

Depending on the country and availability of records, Verify Africa's Self-Verification Services cover a range of personal and professional checks, including:

Identity Verification

Confirm personal identity information through relevant verification sources.

Passport Verification

Verify passport information for employment, travel, immigration, and other purposes.

Driver's License Verification

Confirm the validity and authenticity of driver's license records.

Academic Credential Verification

Verify diplomas, bachelor's degrees, master's degrees, and other academic qualifications.

Employment Verification

Confirm employment history and professional experience where applicable.

Professional Qualification Verification

Verify professional credentials and licenses issued by relevant regulatory bodies.

Adverse Media Checks

Identify relevant negative media information associated with an individual's name.

PEP Checks

Check whether an individual appears on Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) databases.

Sanctions Checks

Screen against relevant sanctions lists as part of personal risk and compliance checks.

Credit Checks

Review available credit information where applicable and legally permitted.

Why Should You Verify Yourself?

Self-verification can help you:

  • Identify errors or discrepancies before they affect an application.
  • Confirm that your credentials are authentic.
  • Prepare for employer or institutional background checks.
  • Reduce avoidable verification delays.
