Genuine Gurdwara letters

Letter authentication

Digital footprint verified

Every official letter from Gurdwara Guru Nanak Darbar Southall carries its own QR code. That code opens a unique web page so you can check the letter is genuine.

Official notice

From 14 September 2026

Any new letter generated or sent by Gurdwara Guru Nanak Darbar Southall on or after 14 September 2026 must carry this authenticity QR code. If it does not, it is not a genuine Gurdwara letter and should not be trusted.

Please scan the QR and check it against the printed page. If you are shown a letter without this stamp, contact the Gurdwara office, or scan a genuine letter and use Report misuse on its verification page.

1

Unique QR on the page

Each letter is printed with its own QR stamp, next to the date. No two letters share the same code.

2

Unique web address

Scanning opens a private link for that letter only, on gurunanakdarbar.org.uk.

3

Check the details

Match the reference, date, and a short content check with the printed page. The full letter is never shown online.

The QR on this page is a sample. A real letter uses a different code that belongs only to that letter.

If the printed page does not match the authentication details, or you believe a letter is being misused, use Report misuse on the check page. The Gurdwara will look into it.
