Day-to-day life in Iran runs on Telegram, WhatsApp and Instagram, yet Facebook remains the app for Marketplace, pages and ad accounts for a local audience. A +98 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Staying in family chats: Iranians living in Canada, Germany or the US often keep a +98 number so relatives can reach them on familiar messaging apps.
Facebook re-checks the phone number for security prompts, ad-account reviews and password resets.
Iran runs a largely separate digital ecosystem, with homegrown apps such as Snapp, Rubika, Eitaa and Digikala tied to an Iranian mobile number. Its diaspora, spread across North America, Europe and Turkey, frequently needs a +98 line to stay connected. Researchers and journalists following the country also use one for local contacts.
Local context
Iranian SIM cards are registered to a national ID or, for visitors, a passport; tourist SIMs are available at major airports. A Iran number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
