If you run Facebook ads, you're probably familiar with verified accounts — the kind of accounts that many advertisers trust and use. However, Facebook has recently started hiding the verification badge. This means verified accounts now look the same as unverified ones.
In this article, I’ll show you how to check if a Facebook account has hidden identity verification.
Why Check for Identity Verification?
Checking whether an account has been verified is important. It helps you make sure your Facebook account is fully confirmed and trusted. With verified accounts, you can run ads with fewer restrictions and avoid being asked to verify your account again after launching a campaign.
This ensures your ad strategy runs smoothly, with fewer issues, and keeps your account safe from risks related to missing identity confirmation.
Recently, Facebook’s algorithm has hidden the verification badge, so verified and unverified accounts look exactly the same. If you accidentally use an unverified account, it can negatively affect your advertising performance.
How to Check Hidden Verification
Please note:
This method is important, but also be careful when using any script or unknown websites. Make sure your personal data and account are safe.

Step 2: Use Developer Console
On the Help Center page:
- Press F12 to open Developer Tools
- Click on the Console tab
- Paste the script below and press Enter

- If you see a message like: "Hide XMDT", that means the account is verified (but the badge is hidden).
- If you see: "Live ads", that means the account is not verified.
