The SMS OTP verification step has been removed from the sign-up process for My Digital Gateway accounts, effective from 9 September 2026. This means that persons enrolling on the Digital Gateway will no longer receive or enter an SMS OTP when creating their “My Digital Gateway” account. However, all users in Pakistan will still be required to provide an active Pakistani mobile phone number during the sign-up process to allow communication with UNHCR. We will notify you when the SMS OTP has been restored.

Please use an active number — we may send important messages to this phone number.

Note: Please use an active number — we may send important messages to that phone number.
