How Borderly Verification Works

Borderly is designed so that you do not have to trust Borderly (or the record holder) to verify their records. The system uses open, standard cryptographic techniques that anyone can verify independently.

• Record integrity — Confirm that no records have been added, removed, or modified after creation using the SHA-256 hash chain.
• Timestamp authenticity — Verify that RFC 3161 timestamps are genuine, issued by a recognized authority, and correspond to the claimed creation time.
• Evidence existence — Confirm that supporting evidence files exist and match their recorded hashes.
• Chain continuity — Check that the hash chain has no gaps or breaks.

You do not need a Borderly account to verify records. You just need a verification token — a secure code provided by the record holder or their attorney. Enter it at borderly.day/verify to access the verification portal.
