Determine the unblocking status of a number.#

Enter your phone number, WhatsApp will give information about your number:

• The number can receive SMS or calls to log into the account.

• The number is temporarily blocked. We recommend to request unblocking from WhatsApp as per instructions.

• The number is blocked for a long time (from 14 to 60 days). WhatsApp may not respond to unblock requests for 2 weeks or more.

Partial Unlock from WhatsApp.#

In case the number is partially unlocked, WhatsApp will send a "code was not received, try again in an hour" notification.

We recommend to take a break for 1-2 days and try to authorize your WhatsApp account. If after this time SMS with the code does not come, you need to repeat the request to WhatsApp to unlock the number.

Additional recommendations:

• Reboot the device;
• Update the app;
• Change the app version: Whatsapp/Whatsapp Business;
• Change device.
