Buyer self-check

Chinese Supplier Evidence & Inconsistency Self-Check

Record only what you currently know. Unknown or missing evidence does not count as safe, and a completed checklist does not verify the supplier.

This self-check uses only the information you enter. It does not verify the supplier and does not issue a fraud, legitimacy, or payment-clearance decision.

1. Do you have the supplier's Chinese legal company name?

An English sales name alone may not identify the registered entity.

2. Did the corporate record conflict with the supplier's claimed identity or status?

Record any inactive status, different company name, or unresolved entity match.

3. Does the website or marketplace profile conflict with the company record?

Compare company names, address, contact domain, product focus, and claimed history.

4. Is the factory claim inconsistent with the available evidence?

Website photos and a broad business scope do not by themselves prove factory ownership.

5. Does the PI issuer differ from the supplier legal entity without documents?

A related company can be legitimate, but the relationship should be documented.

6. Does the bank beneficiary differ from the supplier or PI issuer without documents?

The collecting company and its relationship to the supplier should be clear before payment.

Use the result as a document request list

Ask for the Chinese legal name and business license, current corporate record, PI, beneficiary details, authorization between different companies, and factory evidence that is relevant to your order. Read how VeriSupplier labels confirmed, inconsistent, missing, and out-of-scope evidence.
