Use this interactive demo to learn how to complete identity verification on your LinkedIn profile.

Quick summary

LinkedIn identity verification lets members confirm their real-world identity using Persona or CLEAR, adding a trusted badge to their profile. Completing verification requires a valid government-issued ID, a selfie, and a registered email or mobile number.


Steps

  1. Go to your profile and click the 'Verify now' button beside your profile name.
  2. Select 'Verify your identity with Persona'.
  3. Scan the QR code using your mobile device and continue the verification process on that device.
  4. Click 'Verify with CLEAR' to proceed.
  5. Input your mobile number in the provided field.
  6. Add a registered email address.
  7. Check the 'Terms and Conditions' checkbox.
  8. Tap 'Continue' to take a selfie, following LinkedIn's guidelines.
  9. Select a valid ID to continue by clicking either option.
  10. Review the instruction, then click 'Send'.
  11. Your verification is now complete once your valid ID and selfie are approved.

📌 Why this matters

LinkedIn identity verification matters because it builds trust and credibility on the world's largest professional network. Verified profiles signal authenticity to recruiters, hiring managers, and business connections, reducing the risk of impersonation and fraud. For professionals and businesses, a verified LinkedIn identity can improve profile visibility and increase the likelihood of meaningful connections. As online professional trust becomes a competitive advantage, completing LinkedIn verification is a simple step that delivers lasting credibility.
