Verify Any Indian Supplier
Before You Wire Money.
Found an Indian supplier on IndiaMART, Alibaba, or a trade directory? Before transferring a 30%–50% TT deposit or opening an LC, appoint THE TRUSTROUTES PVT. LTD. to conduct a physical factory/packhouse visit, verify GST/IEC/MCA legal credentials, confirm bank beneficiary ownership, and deliver timestamped photo and 10–12 second video proof.
What our India field team executes and documents for you.
| Execution Stage / Checkpoint | On-Ground Verification & Buyer Deliverable |
|---|---|
| 1. Corporate & Legal Identity (MCA / ROC) | Verification of Certificate of Incorporation, CIN, paid-up capital, active status, and registered directors (confirming whether the entity is a Pvt Ltd, LLP, or proprietorship). |
| 2. Tax & Export License Check (GST & DGFT IEC) | Validation of active GSTIN filing history, DGFT Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), and commodity board registration (APEDA, Spices Board, TEXPROCIL, FSSAI). |
| 3. Manufacturer vs. Trading Broker Check | Physical inspection of factory license, electricity bills, production machinery, and raw material stock to expose online middlemen posing as manufacturers. |
| 4. Bank Beneficiary & Proforma Invoice Match | Confirming that the bank account beneficiary name, AD Code bank, and registered address on your Proforma Invoice match the verified legal entity—preventing wire-diversion fraud. |
| 5. Physical Facility & Capacity Walkthrough | On-site visit to the factory, rice mill, spice unit, agro packhouse, or textile mill to observe hygiene, storage, grading lines, and real container-load output capacity. |
| 6. Timestamped Photo & 10–12s Video Dossier | Delivery of geotagged/timestamped photographs of factory signage, machinery, warehouse stock, and a 10–12 second live walkthrough video with a structured Red-Flag Risk Report. |

Frequently asked questions before appointing us.
How quickly can your team visit and verify a supplier in India?
For major manufacturing and agro clusters (Maharashtra, Gujarat, Delhi NCR, Haryana, Tamil Nadu), our field auditors typically visit the site within 48 to 72 business hours after supplier access confirmation and deliver the complete Verification Dossier + 10–12s videos within 24 hours of the visit.
What if the supplier refuses an on-site visit from your verification team?
A supplier claiming to be a factory who refuses an announced physical visit by the buyer's authorized representative is the #1 red flag of an unverified trading broker or advance-payment scam. If your supplier fails verification, we can immediately source 4 to 6 vetted alternative manufacturers for your product.
Does supplier verification guarantee future shipment quality?
Supplier verification confirms that the business is legally registered, physically exists, and has the machinery/capacity to produce your goods before you send a deposit. To ensure the actual bulk cargo matches your contract before balance payment, always pair verification with our Pre-Shipment Quality Inspection (PSI) service.
