Egypt temporary phone number (+20)
An Egyptian temporary phone number (+20) receives verification codes for Egyptian services that accept only a local line, such as Talabat, Noon Egypt and Dubizzle, and for global apps where you want an account registered to Egypt. Egyptian SIMs are tied to a national ID, so Facebook and WhatsApp treat them as real mobile numbers. On SMS Nitro you pick Egypt and the app, a private number is reserved for 20 minutes, and the code appears in your dashboard. You pay only when the code arrives; otherwise the hold is refunded automatically.

What to know about Egyptian numbers
- Egyptian mobile numbers are 11 digits domestically: 010, 011, 012 or 015 followed by 8 digits. Internationally the zero is dropped: +20 1X XXXX XXXX.
- The first digits identify the carrier: 010 Vodafone, 011 e& (Etisalat), 012 Orange, 015 WE. Apps accept all four.
- Every SIM is registered with a national ID under NTRA rules, so Egyptian numbers are carrier-verified lines, not unregistered ranges.

Tips for using a +20 number
- Type +20 then the number without its leading zero: 010 1234 5678 becomes +20 10 1234 5678. If the app shows the Egypt flag, type the 11 digits with the 0.
- Use the physical-SIM pool for WhatsApp, Facebook, Google and payment apps; the virtual pool is enough for Microsoft, Yahoo and most sign-ups.
- The number is reserved for 20 minutes only. Add an email and backup codes to the new account so you can sign in after it is released.
