Open Facebook
Go to the sign-up form (“Mobile number or email”) or Accounts Center → Personal details → Contact info.
Enter the +267 number

Facebook is one of the most used apps in Botswana, alongside WhatsApp and Instagram. A local +267 number makes Marketplace, pages and ad accounts for a local audience look native rather than foreign.
Safari and lodge bookings: Travellers heading to the Okavango Delta and Chobe can give lodges and transfer operators a Botswana number for confirmations.
Facebook re-checks the phone number for security prompts, ad-account reviews and password resets.
Botswana is one of Africa’s most stable economies, built on diamonds and high-end safari tourism in the Okavango Delta and Chobe. Lodges, guides and suppliers generally coordinate over WhatsApp, so a +267 number makes bookings and business contact simpler. Batswana studying or working abroad also keep a local line for family and banking.
Local context
Botswana requires SIM cards to be registered with an ID or passport before they can be used. A Botswana number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
