THE COURT CHECKS

CHECKED BY THE COURT
Every card is reviewed by the Court before it goes live, and the examinations on it are checked against the Court’s register. Every card carries a code that proves it. A card that cannot be checked at courtofmastersommeliers.ai was not issued by the Court.
IT GROWS WITH YOU
Pass the next examination and add the year — “Advanced · Passed 2027” appears the moment the Court confirms it. Your card follows your career.
Register free, apply, and the Court will check your card within 1 to 4 business days.

The rules in short
- Anyone with an account on the portal can apply, but every card must be approved by CMS Europe (Europe, Africa, Oceania and Asia), based on its requirements. The card is free.
- Examinations passed with CMS Americas are verified by that chapter, which issues its own ID card. This card is not issued for them.
- The Court verifies CMS qualifications only.
- Without a CMS Europe examination (Europe, Africa, Oceania and Asia), no qualification level is shown.
- Your position, workplace, experience and story are your own words.
- Nothing is public until the Court approves it.
Questions
Who can apply?
Anyone with an account on the portal, except those whose examinations were passed with CMS Americas — that chapter verifies its own examinations and issues its own ID card. Every card must be approved by CMS Europe (Europe, Africa, Oceania and Asia), based on its requirements. The card is free.
What does the Court check?
Your name and the examinations you passed with CMS Europe (Europe, Africa, Oceania and Asia), against its register. Nothing else.
I passed with CMS Americas.
CMS Americas has its own electronic system of verification and issues its own ID card. CMS Europe cannot check examinations held there, so this card is not issued for them. If you also passed an examination with CMS Europe (Europe, Africa, Oceania or Asia), you can apply on that.
I have not passed an examination yet.
You can still apply. Your card shows no qualification level. If you have applied for a future examination, it shows you as enrolled.
How long does the review take?
