Additional Tips To Send A Winning Facebook Disabled Appeal
Submit the Facebook disabled appeal with your own email
If your Facebook account is disabled, you must send the Facebook disabled appeal email on your own, using the email connected to your disabled account.
Facebook doesn’t accept appeals sent in by other people on behalf of the account holder, even when they are parents or friends.
Only submit the required documents
The more the better is not true in this case. When uploading your IDs, you should strictly follow Facebook’s instructions to ensure you can recover your account more quickly. If you submit more than one government ID or two non-government IDs, the review process may be delayed.
Don’t hide ID information digitally
It’s required that the photos of your IDs must not be photoshopped or digitally modified to conceal information. Facebook never accepts these kinds of documents and your appeal may be rejected due to that.
If you want to hide any information on your ID that is not required by Facebook, you can cover it physically before taking the photo.
Use polite, concise and descriptive language
If you are required to explain reasons for your appeal, remember to keep your text polite, concise and descriptive, even when you are being so frustrated.
These practices will help the review team fully understand your situation and resolve your problem effectively.
Acceptable types of IDs when submitting Facebook disabled appeal
The IDs you use must contain your name, and at least one of the documents should include your date of birth or photo.
Below, I‘ve compiled some types of government and non government IDs that are accepted when submitting Facebook disabled appeal for your reference.
Government IDs
- Driver’s license
- National identity card
- Passport

Non-Government IDs
