In that case, you can provide an official email address relevant to the category you have chosen for the verification or an official website referencing your official Twitter account like a stable Wikipedia article or news mentions on official media websites.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, there are six categories available to qualify for the Verification process. To be verified, you must be qualified in one of these categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Government Officials<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Organizations, Brands, and Companies<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Journalists and Media Companies<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Sports and Gaming<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Entertainment<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Activists, Organisers, or any other influencer profile<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you fit in any of the categories mentioned above and criteria, you can apply for the verification process through the account settings tab in your mobile app. Twitter will review your application and documents, and you will get your verification badge automatically in few days if you are eligible for it. In case your application gets rejected, you can reapply for the verification process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-src=\"https:\/\/socioblend.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/How-to-apply-for-Twitter-Verification-Process-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"How to apply for Twitter Blue Badge Verification\" class=\"wp-image-3930 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/socioblend.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/How-to-apply-for-Twitter-Verification-Process.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/socioblend.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/How-to-apply-for-Twitter-Verification-Process-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/socioblend.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/How-to-apply-for-Twitter-Verification-Process-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/socioblend.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/How-to-apply-for-Twitter-Verification-Process-171x96.jpg 171w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/576;\" \/><figcaption>Pic Credit: Twitter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/help.twitter.com\/en\/managing-your-account\/about-twitter-verified-accounts\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">strict verification rules&nbsp;<\/a>for each category set by Twitter which you must check before applying. For example, suppose you are a journalist. In that case, you have to adhere to professional standards, like fact-checking, to qualify and must be mentioned in some verified media portals regarding your achievements or profession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some of the worth mentioning Twitter rules that every verified account must have to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Verified accounts will be accountable for their tweets. In case of some hated or offensive tweet against the public interest, the account must face the penalty (varies case-by-case) by Twitter.<\/li><li>In case of an egregious violation, the badge will be removed immediately.<\/li><li>Verified accounts must have a complete profile with the profile name, profile picture, and a confirmed email\/mobile number. The account must be active for atleast six months without any Twitter violation history in the last twelve months.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter says verification is only one way it\u2019s changing how profiles on its platform will work. In the future, it will introduce new ways to designate other types of accounts, including helpful bots providing helpful information like Covid-19 updates or earthquake warnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter will keep updating new policies and features regarding its verification process to make the process more convenient and secure for users.
