LINE "Verification Is Temporarily Blocked": What to Do

LINE shows "verification is temporarily blocked" after too many code requests or wrong entries. Stop trying and wait, usually about 24 hours.

Why it happens

• Several code requests in a short time.
• Wrong codes entered repeatedly.
• Many sign-ups attempted from the same device or number.

What to do

1. Close LINE and do not request more codes.
2. Wait about 24 hours.
3. Check the country and number before trying again.
4. Request one code and wait several minutes for it.

Does reinstalling help?

No. The block is tied to the number and account, not the app install.

If it keeps happening

The number may be unsuitable for LINE, for example a calling-app number or one already linked to another LINE account. Use a number you own and keep.

Signs your number is the problem

• The block returns every time you try, even after waiting.
• LINE says the number cannot be used.
• Other apps accept the same number without trouble.
• In these cases, a different number you own and keep is the practical fix.
