Validate XML syntax instantly and identify the document's root element. Your XML stays entirely in your browser.
XML Input
Validation Result
Paste XML on the left and click Validate XML.
XML Validator checks whether your XML is syntactically well-formed, including properly nested elements, valid closing tags, attributes, quotes, and XML structure.
A valid XML document must have one root element containing the rest of the document structure.
This tool performs syntax validation only. It does not validate an XML document against an XSD, DTD, or external schema.
All processing happens locally in your browser. Your XML data is never uploaded to a server.
