Methods, systems, and devices for performing memory command verification are described. A system may include a memory device and a memory controller, which may be external (e.g., a host device). The memory device may receive, from the memory controller, a command indicating a type of operation and an address. The memory device may decode the command and execute an operation (e.g., the operation corresponding to the decoded command) at an execution location on the memory device. The system (e.g., the memory device or the memory controller) may determine whether the executed operation and execution location match the type of operation and address indicated in the command, and the system may thereby determine an error associated with the decoding, the execution, or both of the command.
