How to verify a plagiarism certificate
A PDF report is not hard to edit, so trust the source rather than the number on paper. PlagiatX gives every certificate a QR code and a unique number, which let anyone compare the result with the record in our database.
How to check
- Scan the QR code on the certificate with a phone camera — the plagiatx.uz/verify page opens.
- Or enter the certificate number on the plagiatx.uz/verify page.
- Compare the percentages and date on the page with the PDF in your hands. Any mismatch means the document was altered.
What the verification page shows
Only the result figures (plagiarism, AI and originality percentages) and the check date. The text of the work, the file name and the author's personal data are not shown — they are not needed to verify a certificate.
How the originality score is derived
Originality is computed from the plagiarism (P) and AI (A) scores with one public formula: 100 − (P + A − P × A / 100). It is identical on the website and in the certificate — details: plagiatx.uz/originallik-foizi.
Questions
How long can a certificate be verified?
The text is deleted from history after 30 days (24 hours in private mode), but the result figures are kept so the certificate can still be verified.
What if the QR code doesn't open?
Enter the certificate number manually on the plagiatx.uz/verify page. If it isn't found, the document was not issued by PlagiatX or its number was altered.
