# BIMI Checker

> Check whether your domain publishes a BIMI record, and what needs to be in place before your logo will display.

## Where to find it

Select **DNS Tools** in the left navigation, then the **BIMI Scanner** tab. Enter a domain and select **Check BIMI**. The tool looks for a TXT record at `default._bimi.yourdomain.com`.

## No BIMI record found

If nothing is published, the result names the exact address it checked and lists what BIMI requires:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Reach an enforcing DMARC policy">
    BIMI only applies once DMARC is set to `p=quarantine` or `p=reject`. Monitoring-only is not enough. Use the [DMARC Configurator](/dmarc-configurator) to move your policy up.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create an SVG Tiny PS logo">
    BIMI accepts one format: SVG Tiny Portable/Secure. An ordinary SVG export will not validate.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Obtain a VMC certificate">
    A Verified Mark Certificate proves you hold the trademark on the logo. Gmail requires one before it will display your logo.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish the record">
    Add a TXT record at `default._bimi.yourdomain.com` pointing to your logo, and to your certificate if you have one.
  </Step>
</Steps>
