# Verify Domain

> Verify an existing domain.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Calling this API endpoint triggers an **asynchronous domain verification
> process**. The domain will be temporarily marked as `pending` regardless of
> its current status while the verification is in progress. Since this request
> initiates the complete domain verification cycle, it will trigger
> `domain.updated` webhook events as the domain status changes during the
> verification process.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Claimed a domain?** A [domain claim](/docs/dashboard/domains/claim) transfers the
> domain into your account as a brand-new domain with its own DKIM keys, so the
> previous account's DNS records can't be reused. After the claim is
> `completed`, fetch the domain with [Retrieve
> Domain](/docs/api-reference/domains/get-domain), update your DNS with the new DKIM
> record(s) it returns, then call this endpoint to verify it before sending or
> receiving email. See [DKIM
> records](/docs/dashboard/domains/manage-domains#what-are-dkim-records) for details.
