Meta Verified in India: Cost, Requirements and Is It Worth It?

Meta Verified is a paid subscription that gives Instagram and Facebook accounts a blue badge after identity verification.

• A verified badge.
• Identity verification with a government ID.
• Impersonation protection.
• Access to support.
• Some extra features depending on the plan.

You need to be 18+, have an active account with some posting history, meet the minimum activity requirements, and verify with a government ID that matches your profile name. Pricing and exact features change, so check the Meta Verified section in your app's settings for current Indian pricing.

• Worth it: creators who get impersonated, businesses where trust is central (finance, health), people who need faster support.
• Less useful: small personal accounts – the badge alone doesn't increase reach.

A clear bio, consistent content, a healthy follower count and genuine-looking engagement do a lot. Comments from verified accounts on your posts can also add a credibility signal.
