Select Egypt (+20) in PayPal's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +20 into PayPal.
Enter the PayPal code
PayPal sends a 6-digit code by SMS. SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +20 number; type the code into PayPal to finish.
Tips for Egypt numbers
- After +20, Egypt mobile numbers begin with 10, 11, 12, 15 — a quick check that you pasted the whole number.
- Only need one code and the country doesn't matter? Lesotho costs $0.28 for PayPal, against $0.77 here.
- PayPal requires your real identity and residence; the phone number is only one part.
Why use an Egypt number for PayPal?
Day-to-day life in Egypt runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and Messenger, yet PayPal remains the app for receiving payments with a number that matches your account country. A +20 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Egyptians in the Gulf: Millions of Egyptians working in Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Kuwait keep a +20 number for family, banking and InstaPay transfers.
PayPal sends login and payment codes for as long as the account exists.
