Twitter Opens Verification to Everyone- Get Verified On Twitter - See Details

Twitter says it will consider accounts of users “in music, acting,
fashion, government, politics, religion, journalism, media, sports,
business, and other key interest areas” or brands within the same
areas. If you fall into that category, you will need to have a verified
phone number, a confirmed email address, a bio, a profile photo,
a website and a birthday set. Of course, your account must be
public.
Applicants will need to explain why they believe they are
sufficiently worthy of verification and, Twitter says, may be
required to show a copy of government-issued ID to confirm their
identity.
If you application gets declined, you can re-apply for the same
account in thirty days.
When you realize the verification process isn’t “so” tasking.
So, if you are that keen on having the blue tick, you can start
applying today. Just submit a request by going to http://verification.twitter.com , and Twitter
will respond via email.

Additional information
When submitting a request to verify an account, we ask for
additional information that can help us evaluate it. Here are some
tips to keep in mind:
• We’ll ask you to tell us why we should verify an account. If the
account represents a person, we want to understand their
impact in their field. If it represents a corporation or company,
let us know their mission.
• When providing URLs to support your request, choose sites that
help express the account holder’s newsworthiness or relevancy
in their field.
• We may request that you scan and upload a legible copy of your
government-issued ID (such as a passport or driver’s license)
to confirm your identity.
