What is address verification?
Address verification is the process of confirming a candidate's residential address—both temporary and permanent—as part of a background check. It is considered a mandatory step in any company's BGV and hiring process.
Address verification helps build trust, ensures company assets reach the right person, and reduces the risk of fraud and criminal activity. An unverified address can indicate a candidate is concealing their true identity or location.
Proquest offers two types of address verification: Temporary Address Verification, which confirms the candidate's current residence through a physical visit, and Permanent Address Verification, which verifies the official government-documented address, including accommodation type, address matching, owner relationship, and locality details.
Yes. For temporary address verification, Proquest conducts on-site physical visits to confirm candidate occupancy and residence details.
Yes. Proquest provides address verification for both pre-employment screening and existing employee checks.

Contact Proquest at enquiry@proquestcs.com or call 9398738909. We are available Monday to Saturday from 10:00 AM to 7:30 PM.
Address verification is typically one of the earliest steps in the BGV process. It confirms a candidate's residence before other verification checks proceed and cross-validates identity documents such as PAN or passport verification, providing a physical layer of confirmation that digital-only verification cannot replicate.
