To do this, first download the BIS Care App on your mobile phone.

Open the app and select the option "Verify HUID," or "Hallmark Unique Identification."

Next, enter or scan the 6-digit code imprinted on the jewelry.

In a few seconds, all the jewelry's details will appear on the screen.

Here, you'll find all the information related to the jewelry, such as the jeweler's name under which it was hallmarked, its carat value, and its authenticity status. Everything will be visible in one place. Using the BIS Care App is very easy.

With this, you can protect yourself from fraud. The special thing is that the data displayed in this app is directly connected to the BIS server, due to which the results become completely credible.
