How do I get verified?
Upload the documents required for your profile type in Verification. CEADC usually reviews them within 2 business days, and you get the Verified badge.
Updated November 11, 2026
The Verified badge tells clients that CEADC has checked who you are. You need it to send quotes, and it helps you rank higher in search.
Documents you need
- Service provider: government-issued ID and liability insurance.
- Business: government-issued ID, business registration and liability insurance.
- Organisation: government-issued ID and registration.
A trade licence and a background check are optional, and are shown on your profile once approved.
Details we check
- ID: the expiry date.
- Liability insurance: the insurer, the expiry date and at least $100,000 of coverage per occurrence.
- Trade licence: the number, issuing body and expiry date.
- Background check: issued in the last 12 months.
Uploading
- Go to Verification.
- Upload each document as a PDF, JPG or PNG (up to 10 MB) and fill in its details.
- We review them, usually within 2 business days, and email you the result.
Your documents are stored privately and never shown on your profile.
We remind you 30 days before a document expires. If a required document expires, your badge is paused until you upload a new one.
