# BIMI Record Checker

Look up the selected BIMI TXT record, parse its logo and authority evidence locations, and review the domain's published DMARC enforcement policy.

## What the lookup checks

The tool checks TXT at selector.\_bimi.domain and DMARC at \_dmarc.domain through two public resolvers. It parses the BIMI version, logo location (l), and authority evidence location (a) when published.

## What remains outside this check

The tool does not fetch or validate the logo, inspect SVG Tiny PS conformance, validate a VMC or CMC certificate, prove organizational identity, or predict whether a particular mailbox provider will display the logo.

## DMARC is a prerequisite

BIMI depends on an enforced DMARC policy. Published records still need to align with the mail sent in production, and mailbox providers apply their own support and acceptance rules.

## Questions about this tool

**Does a valid BIMI TXT record guarantee a logo appears?**

No. Providers can require DMARC enforcement, an acceptable SVG, authority evidence, reputation, and provider-specific eligibility.

**Where is a BIMI record published?**

Usually at default.\_bimi followed by the organizational domain, although another selector can be used.

**Does this tool validate a BIMI certificate?**

No. It reports the published authority-evidence URL but does not download or validate the certificate.
