EnglishRecently, many DingTalk administrators have been receiving a friendly reminder in the backend: "Your organization has not completed the DingTalk annual certification yet. Please complete it as soon as possible."
Xiao Zhang from Hangzhou is an administrative staff member at her company and also serves as a DingTalk administrator. When she first saw this notification, she couldn't help but wonder: "We rely on DingTalk for daily meetings, document approvals, and client communication—everything runs smoothly. Why do we still need to undergo annual certification?"
In fact, the answer lies in the following three real-world security incidents.
"Business Card" Is the Starting Point for Building Business Trust
In the digital age, trust is the most valuable asset for any business. To earn that trust, the first step is to establish "Who am I"—making sure the outside world can clearly identify the organization's true identity.
A Recruitment Incident Nearly Led to Misleading "Fake Company"
A manufacturing company in East China has more than 800 employees. During peak recruitment season, the HR department repeatedly received inquiries from job seekers: "Do you have two different DingTalk accounts? The HR representative I contacted asked me to pay a training fee first."
An internal investigation revealed that someone had impersonated the company on social media, creating an unverified DingTalk account with an almost identical name and profile picture, and tricked job seekers into paying a so-called "training fee." Although the financial loss was eventually recovered, the company's reputation had already taken a hit.
After completing the DingTalk annual certification, the situation improved significantly: The system locks the company name to prevent others from registering organizations with the same name; the platform automatically restricts unverified, impersonating accounts; and the company can also strengthen public recognition through an official certification badge.
The company's leader admitted: "Brand management awareness really should start with 'certification'."
A Leaked Screenshot Nearly Caused a Business Dispute
A service outsourcing company once faced a data breach risk during project execution. At the time, an employee shared a screenshot of a contact list containing personal information such as names and positions in an internal group chat, and the screenshot inadvertently leaked to the outside.
To prevent similar incidents, the company immediately completed the DingTalk annual certification and enabled contact list watermarks and chat content watermarks.
Since then, all screenshots have automatically included personal identification watermarks, effectively protecting employees' privacy while raising everyone's awareness of information security.
A Single Misoperation Nearly Wiped Out the Company's System
An administrative staff member at a local internet startup accidentally clicked the "Dissolve Organization" button, triggering the organization's dissolution process. Although they quickly filed an appeal and restored the data, employees were unable to log in during the process, bringing business operations to a complete halt.
After completing the annual certification, dissolving an organization now requires canceling the certification first, adding an extra layer of security. The founder said this mechanism gives him greater confidence in the stability of the company's digital assets.
Why Is "DingTalk Annual Certification" Necessary?
For businesses, having a credible "digital identity card" is the first step in conducting business collaborations. With this "security lock," companies can confidently expand their operations and deepen partnerships.
For the DingTalk platform, ensuring that every organization's identity is genuine and reliable is a fundamental principle for maintaining ecosystem security.
DingTalk's annual certification is not just a qualification review process; it's also a "credit enhancement + benefit upgrade" solution designed specifically for businesses.
Note: This certification applies to general corporate organizations registered in mainland China; educational institutions, government departments, and other non-profit entities use alternative certification methods; organizations registered overseas are not currently supported; those whose certification is about to expire and have not completed the annual review will revert to an unverified status—please take care of this in a timely manner.
Whether you're a B2B company, a consulting or marketing firm that values brand image, or a group operating across regions, you can benefit from this certification mechanism. For startups and small-to-medium-sized enterprises in particular, this is an effective way to establish a professional image and reduce operational risks.

Completing "Annual Certification" Takes Just One Simple Step!

The system typically completes the review within 30 minutes. After approval, a corporate certification badge will appear. An annual recertification is required each year to ensure that the information remains valid and the identity remains trustworthy over the long term.
