Get your Nepal number
Sign up at PhoneBorn with an email, top up with crypto and choose Nepal: a monthly plan ($4.24) if you want to keep the account, or a single-use LinkedIn OTP number ($0.69) for one code.
Open LinkedIn
Go to Settings → Sign in & security → Phone numbers, or the prompt during sign-up.
Enter the +977 number
Select Nepal (+977) in the country picker and paste the number from your dashboard without a leading 0. Nepal mobiles look like 98xxxxxxxx → +977 98xxxxxxxx.

Day-to-day life in Nepal runs on Viber, Messenger and Facebook, yet LinkedIn remains the app for a professional profile for a job search or clients in the country. A +977 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Students in Australia and Japan: Nepali students overseas keep a local number for eSewa and Khalti wallets and for OTPs from Nepali banks.
LinkedIn uses the number for sign-in checks and account restrictions long after sign-up.
Remittances from Nepalis working abroad make up a large share of the economy, and Viber is the go-to app for calls home. Add the trekking industry and a fast-growing student diaspora, and a +977 number becomes a practical tool for many people.
Local context
Foreigners buying a SIM in Nepal need a passport copy and a photo for registration. A Nepal number from PhoneBorn needs no SIM and no ID — only an email.
