What we certify

A promise on the front of the pack

The mark goes on only when the evidence behind it — recipes, suppliers, declarations — holds up. The packages alongside are specimens, their official marks composited in-house.

Five marks · One application · One review · One invoice

Compare the five marks

Five unbranded retail packages grouped on a warm cream background in bright daylight, each carrying one V-Cert mark: Vegan on a carton, Vegetarian on a bottle of green juice, Gluten-Free on an amber supplement bottle, Non-GMO on a stand-up pouch and Cruelty-Free on a cosmetic jar.

    How a certificate number is checked

The full process, step by step

Start from your product

Food & beverage

Launching a plant-based SKU? Vegan and vegetarian marks for food and beverage.

Amber and turmeric-colored capsules spread on a white QC bench, a gloved hand with tweezers in bright even light

Supplements

Capsule shells and carriers are where claims fail. Vegan and gluten-free marks for supplements.

Cosmetics

Cruelty-free and vegan in one review — both marks for cosmetics and personal care.

Exporters

Selling into markets that ask for proof? Bundle internationally readable marks.

Verification

Every certificate, checkable by anyone

A V-Cert certificate is only worth what a buyer can confirm without asking you. Every certificate carries a number and a QR code, and both lead to the same place: that certificate, on the V-Cert certificate portal — no account, no fee, no email to us.

The number is four parts — CC-TT-MMYY-SSSS — country, mark, month and year of first issue, serial. It looks like US-V-0926-0001.
