How to Check if Your Labubu Doll is Real?

Purchase Source: Always try to buy from official POP MART stores, their official app, or authorized retailers. Reputable secondary market platforms like StockX often have their own rigorous authentication processes, but be wary of unofficial links and random online sellers.

Packaging Quality: Genuine Labubu boxes have a smooth, slightly textured matte finish with embossed logos and muted colors. Fakes often have glossy, thin, plasticky, or overly vibrant boxes with blurry printing. Check for crisp details and proper spelling.

QR Code Authentication: Most newer Labubu dolls have a QR code on the packaging. Scan this using the official POP MART mini-program. It should lead you directly to their official verification page and show a "First Query" status. Be cautious if it redirects elsewhere or lags.

Physical Features - Teeth: A key indicator is the number of teeth. Authentic Labubu dolls consistently have nine sharp, evenly spaced teeth. Counterfeits often have fewer (e.g., seven or eight) or more, with poor print quality or uneven spacing.

Physical Features - UV Mark: For Labubu dolls released in 2024 or later, shine a UV-A light (black light) on the right foot. A genuine doll will reveal a clear silhouette or icon of that specific Labubu version (e.g., a sitting Labubu for "Have A Seat" series).

Overall Quality & Details: Examine the doll's overall craftsmanship. Real Labubus have smooth, matte vinyl, clean paint lines, bright and embedded eyes, and molded features. Fake dolls may have rough textures, sloppy paint, less defined features, or visible stitching.

Identity Card & Desiccant: Authentic dolls often come with a well-printed identity card made of thick, textured cardstock (or frosted plastic for certain series) and a desiccant packet with clear, dark print. Fakes might have flimsy cards, blurry desiccant print, or no desiccant.
