An '''Official Proxy''' is a sample image of a card that is usually used in place of an unreleased card. These are commonly used in articles to advertise upcoming sets. Official Proxy images can be identified by the lack of [[password]] and a simplified or absent [[security foil]].

Websites using Official Proxies include Konami's official Yu-Gi-Oh! sites and social media, as well as VIZ Media's official site. Official Proxies can also be found in issues of ''[[Weekly Shōnen Jump]]'' and ''[[Shonen Jump]]'', as well as on Sneak Peek posters.

Modern ''[[OCG]]'' Official Proxies normally feature a capitalized "SAMPLE" watermark superimposed on the [[card text]] box or in the lower-right corner of its [[artwork]]. A notable exception to this is [https://yu-gi-oh.jp/ YU-GI-OH.jp], whose proxies instead use the website's logo along with the text 「無断転載禁止」 ("Unauthorized reproduction prohibited").
 
 
 
Official Proxies are not guaranteed to match the released card, although they typically do. For example, "[[Seismic Crasher]]" had a different artwork on its Official Proxy to its eventual print, and several cards have had their card text changed before their release.

Official Proxy images can be identified by:
 +
* A lack of a [[Passcode]] and an [[Eye of Anubis Hologram]]
 +
* A capitalized SAMPLE written over the card's text field.

Formerly, if Official Proxies are shown ahead of a card's official release, they are not guaranteed to be a perfect representation. "[[Seismic Crasher]]" had a different artwork on its Official Proxy to its eventual print, and several cards have had their card text changed before their release. Now, Official Proxies are an almost accurate representation of their official counterparts.
