Free AB 723 disclosure label and QR code generator

Since 1 January 2026, California agents who advertise a digitally altered listing photo must add a statement saying it was altered, plus a link, URL or QR code to the unaltered original (Business & Professions Code § 10140.8, from AB 723). This free tool checks whether your edit needs a label, then stamps the label and a QR code onto your photo in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.

What AB 723 requires, in plain English

Who: California real estate brokers and salespeople, and anyone advertising on their behalf.
What counts as altered: photos edited with software or AI to add, remove or change elements such as furniture, fixtures, appliances, flooring, walls, paint color, landscaping or the facade.
What doesn’t: lighting, sharpening, white balance, color correction, angle, straightening, cropping and exposure.
What you must include: a statement that the image was altered, and a link, URL or QR code to a public page that shows and clearly identifies the original. On websites you control, show the unaltered version too.

Your MLS may add its own rules on wording and placement. Read the full breakdown on our AB 723 disclosure page and in Virtual staging disclosure rules: what MLS and California law require.
