Open Binance
Go to Account → Security → SMS Authentication (or phone sign-up).
Enter the +243 number
Select DR Congo (+243) in the country picker and paste the number from your dashboard without a leading 0. DR Congo mobiles look like 08x xxx xxxx → +243 8x xxx xxxx.

Day-to-day life in DR Congo runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and TikTok, yet Binance remains the app for a stable 2FA number for a crypto account. A +243 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.

Losing an exchange 2FA number can freeze withdrawals until a lengthy reset.
DR Congo is Africa’s largest French-speaking country and a global supplier of cobalt and copper, which draws mining companies and contractors to Katanga. With four major operators and heavy use of mobile money, a +243 number is the practical way to reach people from Kinshasa to Goma. A sizeable diaspora in Belgium and France also uses Congolese numbers to stay in touch with home.
Local context
SIM cards in DR Congo must be registered with an ID or passport, and the regulator has disconnected unregistered lines. A DR Congo number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
