You can verify Institut Kervegan's legal status in several ways. First, look up the RNA record directly on the JOAFE (Journal Officiel des Associations et Fondations d'Entreprise) at https://www.journal-officiel.gouv.fr/pages/associations-search-associations using RNA number W442005164. The result shows the official name, registered purpose, registered address, and date of creation. Second, check the Data Associations portal maintained by the DJEPVA (Direction de la Jeunesse, de l'Education Populaire et de la Vie Associative) at https://www.data-asso.fr/ - this aggregates RNA data with financial information (comptes annuels), public subsidies received, and employment data. Third, ask the organisation for its statuts (bylaws), its most recent rapport d'activite (annual report), and its comptes annuels (annual accounts). Legitimate French charities, especially those receiving public subsidies or donations exceeding 153,000 EUR per year, are required to publish these. If the RNA record exists, the purpose matches, and financial reports are available, the organisation is legitimate.
