Cover card with a profile and warning icon, for whether a new Facebook account after a ban survives.
Short answer

Making a new Facebook account after a permanent ban is risky: Meta's rules let it disable accounts created to evade enforcement, and new accounts on the same device or details are often caught. If your appeal window is still open, appeal first. If it was a mistake or a hack, get advice before opening anything new.

Summary
  • Meta can disable accounts made to evade a ban.
  • Linked devices, phone numbers and details are signals.
  • Appeal while the window is open.
  • New accounts can harm the original appeal.
  • Business needs may have other routes.

#Why do new accounts get disabled?

Meta's Community Standards on account integrity allow removal of accounts created to get around enforcement. Shared phones, numbers, emails and networks can link them.

#What are the options?

#What common mistakes should I avoid?

  • Opening a new account while appealing.
  • Using the same phone number.
  • Recreating the same Pages.
  • Buying aged accounts.

#When should I ask an expert before I act?

Ask for help before you appeal if the account matters to your income, your business or your memories, if you have already had one appeal rejected, or if you cannot tell whether the problem is a bug, a restriction or a hack. That is where most avoidable losses happen.
