Compliant material, it is not a counterfeit. There has Nikon hologram box and the official notice. I took before my trip to Ireland as a 2nd battery. No regrets the battery hold more than 1,500 images before needing to be recharged (D3100 on a maximum quality). In short perfect. You can go there with eyes closed because VBF11402 reference is the reference shop Nikon. And do not forget to do the last days of your device via the Nikon website to recognize the battery.
