Expert human authentication
Certainty, documented by hand
Qualified authenticators examine handbags, shoes, sneakers, watches, and jewelry, then issue a structured record with a unique certificate ID.
What we evaluate
Five categories, one standard
Each category is reviewed against its own construction, hardware, and material criteria by a qualified human authenticator.
Handbags
Designer handbags
Stitching density, hardware finish, lining, and date-code consistency are examined under macro light.
Footwear
Shoes and sneakers
Sole construction, stitch patterns, box and labeling, and material finish are assessed against known references.
Fine goods
Watches and jewelry
Movements, case finishing, engravings, and metal stamps are reviewed with magnification and documented notes.

Expert standards
Qualified reviewers, transparent notes
Truehall's authenticators are assigned by category and bring specialist training in their discipline. Every finding is reviewed for consistency before it is released.
Customer reviews will appear here once genuine feedback is available. Until then, we publish our standards and process rather than unverified praise.
Common questions
Before you submit
Turnaround is typically 24 to 48 hours after evidence is complete. Additional photographs may be requested when detail is unclear. An inconclusive finding means the evidence does not support a clear result, and we state that plainly. Pricing for standard authentication, detailed reports, and second opinions is listed on our pricing page.
Certificates carry a unique ID and can be checked on our verification page, which displays valid, revised, or revoked status. Full answers are available on the FAQ page.
