Partner-led Business Verification (PLBV)
Partner-led Business Verification (PLBV) helps trusted businesses get verified in as little as 48 hours, enabling them to start messaging faster without waiting for Meta’s full review.
Prerequisites
Required documents:
Time to complete: Submit in minutes; review typically can take up to 48 hours.
Important notes
PLBV is NOT available for Government Agencies/ Accounts.
Don’t upload personal documents or IDs — we only accept business documents for validation.
Business details in the documents match the details of the legal business entity (legal name, address). If they don’t, we won’t be able to approve your submission.
Ensure the account is new and has not gone through any previous verification process. If your account has already submitted a verification, please try using the Standard Business Verification
Up to 3 PLBV attempts are allowed per Business; after that, the Standard Business Verification process is required.
PLBV Paths
There are two paths available to use PLBV:
PLBV using Embedded Signup
This path is for new WABAs only. Business admins can verify a Business Portfolio using the Embedded Signup after the number registration flow.
Accounts submitted without a website may be automatically restricted until 360Dialog Business Legitimacy and Meta's Business Verification is completed.
⇒ To avoid delays, please include a website when submitting your account.
What will you see on the screen?
After verifying the phone number, a screen will appear showing the option to upload documents. It looks like this:

PLBV using Chat Support
This path can be used at any time. ie: the WABA is already created and has at least 1 registered phone number.
WABAs that are disabled/blocked are not eligible.
Steps
Successful outcome
Our support team will communicate the outcome in the open support case.
Your endpoint should receive the
phone_number_quality_changedwebhook indicating:Messaging limit increased to 1,000/day, and
Display name becomes visible after review.
See Webhook events and notifications documentation for details.
Meta makes the final decision; 360dialog approval does not guarantee verification.
Troubleshooting
Mismatch detected / request declined: Ensure BM/WABA data exactly matches the documents (legal name, address, registration/VAT).
WABA blocked: Resolve the block first; blocked WABAs are not eligible.
Insufficient proof of activity: Provide a recent document (issued within the last 60 days).
No webhook received: Check if your webhook endpoint is reachable/subscribed and review recent delivery logs.
If you still cannot identify the reason using the points above, start a chat support request and ask for our PLBV specialist.
