Open Instagram
Go to “Sign up with mobile number” on the Instagram app, or Settings → Accounts Center → Personal details.
Enter the +966 number
Select Saudi Arabia (+966) in Instagram's country picker, then paste the digits your dashboard shows after +966 into Instagram.
Enter the Instagram code
Instagram sends a 6-digit code by SMS. SMS codes appear in your PhoneBorn dashboard next to the +966 number; type the code into Instagram to finish.

Day-to-day life in Saudi Arabia runs on WhatsApp, Snapchat and X, yet Instagram remains the app for creator and shop accounts aimed at local followers. A +966 number keeps that account tied to the country without using your personal SIM.
Buy now, pay later: Saudi shoppers widely use Tabby and Tamara at checkout, and these services verify accounts with a Saudi mobile number.
Instagram often asks new accounts to confirm the phone number again after a few days of activity.
