Get both your DD214 and DD256 Military Discharge Certificate combo!

NOTE: Our DD256 Military Discharge Certificate is for U.S. Military Veterans only. If you are not a veteran, you do not have a *real* DD-214, and therefore you cannot and will not be able to use a DD256 in order to obtain military benefits or otherwise prove your military service. Some companies and services will provide a “veteran” DD256 Military Discharge Certificate to anyone! Touchstone's DD256 Military Discharge Certificate is the only true, secure, third-party verified DD256 Military Discharge Certificate for veterans to prove their actual service.

The information on the face of the certificate is pulled directly off your DD-214, NGB22, Orders of Separation, or your other official final separation document which WE retrieve directly from the government for you. Your certificate will be created specifically for your Grade, Rating, Branch of Service, Separation Date, as well as identify the actual officer who issued you your DD214 for either Honorable or General discharge. A Discharge Certificate is NOT issued for OTH.

We cannot accept a copy of your DD214 from you, to preserve the integrity of the certificates we issue. Unfortunately, forgeries abound. We accept DD214s only from the Government itself. You'll have to provide us with the legal authority to access your records, a form you'll complete when you place your order. After we receive your record from the Government, we'll process your order and provide you with two (2) certified hardcopies of your DD214, a digitally signed PDF copy (for authenticity) which you can download from our secure server, and your personalized and verifiable Military Discharge Certificate.

Finally, anyone with a smart phone can verify that your DD256 Military Discharge Certificate is authentic simply by scanning the QR code on the lower left hand corner (try it yourself, below). This ID validation technology is not available to veterans through any other company. For confirmation of its authenticity, a digitally signed and verified copy of your DD-214 can also be quickly accessed and downloaded from your Touchstone account.

Some benefits of the new verified DD256 Military Discharge Certificate include:

  • Verified and information guaranteed to $25,000; other "Military Discharge Certificates" are issued to anyone, ANYONE, real veterans and fakes! if you simply pay a fee, become a "member" or buy a "subscription." A Touchstone verified certificate is issued only to verified veterans.
  • Our certificates are issued by a trusted third-party independent verifier Touchstone Research who has been providing veterans their records for over a decade!
  • Your DD256 Military Discharge Certificate can be validated with most smartphone cameras or a QR barcode reader on any smartphone with your entry of your Personal Identification Code; this unique validation technology is not available anywhere else.
  • Your DD256 Military Discharge Certificate is printed on 32 lb Ivory Parchment Paper suitable for framing.


*Touchstone only guarantees the veteran's service data.

More and more agencies which provide veterans with benefits and/or preference, including discounts, in order to establish eligibility will require some form of a certified DD-214 or separation document. And if your actual DD214 is required, you can either keep your also-provided digitally signed DD214 on your smartphone, or download it from Touchstone's secure server.

Keep your DD-214 and identity safe while proving your service easily and efficiently!
