Open LinkedIn
Go to Settings → Sign in & security → Phone numbers, or the prompt during sign-up.
Enter the +222 number

Day-to-day life in Mauritania runs on WhatsApp, Facebook and TikTok, yet LinkedIn remains the app for a professional profile for a job search or clients in the country. A +222 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Paying with Bankily: Bankily has become a common way to pay and send money in Nouakchott, and it is linked to a local mobile number.
LinkedIn uses the number for sign-in checks and account restrictions long after sign-up.
Mauritania is a vast Saharan country whose economy leans on mining, fishing and new offshore gas. Business, trade and family life are organised largely over WhatsApp, which makes a local number useful for contractors, traders and Mauritanians living abroad.
