Facebook disabled your profile

Steps

1. Open Facebook on your usual device, with any VPN off.
2. Find the notice and choose the appeal or disagree option.
3. Confirm the code sent to your email or phone.
4. Complete any ID or selfie step.
5. Screenshot the confirmation and wait. Do not send repeat appeals.

Route for this notice

The route for this notice, the checklist and the common questions are below.

1. Log in on a device you have used before and read the notice in full; it says whether you can appeal and how long you have.
2. If you were hacked or cannot log in, start at facebook.com/hacked, even if you are not sure it was a hack.
3. If you no longer have the email or phone, use the 'Find your account' page with any older email or number you once used.
4. On a two-factor screen, choose 'Need another way to authenticate?' (or 'Having trouble?' on Android) to reach the identity options.
5. Check Settings, then Account status, for restrictions on posting, messaging or Marketplace.

Checklist

• For Pages: proof that you run the business.
• Screenshots of the notices and any emails from Facebook.
• Every email address and phone number ever used on the account.
• The profile link or username.
• A clear photo of a government ID that matches the profile name.

Writing the request

• State the facts in two or three sentences: the profile is yours, what happened, and what you have changed.
• Do not include links or attachments the form does not ask for.
• If the name on the profile differs from your ID, say why (a nickname, a married name, a transliteration).

Do not

• Using a VPN or a new phone for the recovery.
• Calling phone numbers that claim to be Facebook support; Meta has no general public support line.
• Creating a second profile while the first is disabled.
• Relying on trusted contacts; Facebook says that feature is no longer supported.

After the request

• Check that your Pages and ad accounts still list you as admin.
• Once back in, review Where you're logged in and turn on two-factor with an app.
• Expect an ID or video selfie step; complete it the first time it appears.
• Watch the email or phone on the account and the Support Inbox.

Next options

• A Page or ad account was taken along with the profile.
• The notice says the decision is final.
• The ID step keeps rejecting your document.

What to send

• Your username or profile link.
• A screenshot of the notice or error, with the date visible.
• Which email or phone is on the account (just which one, never a code).
• What happened before it started, in a few lines.

Please do not send passwords, login codes, card numbers or access tokens.
