Open Telegram
Go to the “Your phone number” screen when you start Telegram for the first time.
Enter the +358 number
Select Finland (+358) in Telegram's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +358 into Telegram.
Enter the Telegram code
Telegram sends a 5-digit login code by SMS (or inside Telegram on a device that is already logged in). SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +358 number; type the code into Telegram to finish.

Day-to-day life in Finland runs on WhatsApp, Instagram and Snapchat, yet Telegram remains the app for channels, groups and communities where a local number looks natural. A +358 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Students across Finland: International students in Helsinki, Espoo, Tampere and Turku need a +358 number for university services and Wolt deliveries.
Telegram accounts are tied to the number for life; keeping it lets you log in on new devices and recover the account.
