How to check a genuine Labubu before buying in the UAE

Identify the exact Labubu first

Have a Seat, Pin for Love and other named series are separate products. A single blind box, an opened identified figure and an unsealed case are also different offers. Start by writing down the series, format and quantity described in the listing.

The photos below are catalogue images for identification. They do not show that a particular seller’s packaging has been inspected, and they are not a genuine-versus-fake reference set. Request actual photographs when you need to assess condition.

Use the official verification route

POP MART provides an authenticity-check page that explains its code verification process. Open that official guidance independently rather than trusting an unfamiliar page reached through a screenshot or message. Follow the instructions for the packaging in front of you.

If verification is unclear, stop and contact POP MART or the seller for evidence. Avoid posting an unused verification code publicly. A successful result should be considered alongside the item, packaging and transaction history, not detached from them.

Inspect evidence for the actual purchase

Ask for clear photographs of the figure, tags, packaging and any relevant receipt, with personal information covered. Compare the stated series and item format across those materials. Examine whether seals or packaging have been opened and whether that matches the description.

There is no responsible single visual rule that authenticates every series. Lighting, camera processing and manufacturing variation can affect appearance. A mismatch deserves investigation, while the absence of an obvious mismatch is not proof.

Buy the format you actually want

If you want a particular character, an identified opened item is a different decision from an unopened blind box. Read what is included and whether the seller is offering one item or multiple boxes. Do not assume that a case listing guarantees a secret variant.

For a marketplace purchase, confirm the verification process applicable to that category, the condition description and the final total. The product links below help you inspect the listing; they are not evidence of official POP MART retailer status.
