Step 01
Start with the manufacturer
Match the manufacturer name on the product, label, and official product page.

Buyer guide
How to check original products before buying online.
Verification is a sequence of small checks. Start with the official source, collect proof points, and ask for clarification when the visible information is incomplete.
Step 02
Check the official product page
Compare the exact product name, format, pack size, active ingredient, or model specification.
Step 03
Check distributor or importer details
Look for a public distributor reference and compare it with any importer sticker shown on the product.
Step 04
Check batch and expiry guidance
Ask for a clear photo of the batch number, manufacturing date, and expiry date where relevant.
Step 05
Check barcode or product code
Use the barcode, GTIN, SKU, registration number, or model code as one proof point, not the only proof point.
Step 06
Compare label details
Check spelling, formulation, warnings, instructions, and visible label layout against an official reference.
Step 07
Ask for invoice or source
Ask the seller for an invoice or supply-source reference before purchasing.
Step 08
Be careful with unusually low prices
A price far below visible market ranges is a reason to request more proof, not a conclusion.
Step 09
Do not rely only on packaging photos
Stock photos cannot confirm the exact item, batch, distributor sticker, or condition you will receive.
Step 10
Contact the manufacturer when in doubt
Final verification should come from the official manufacturer, distributor, or relevant authority.
