Hello NVIDIA Team,
I am writing to request manual verification for my account as I am currently unable to access the NVIDIA NIM APIs and my account has been flagged.
The Issue: I am a 17-year-old student developer from Egypt. Unfortunately, Egypt (+20) is not listed in the SMS verification options on the portal. In my excitement to start using these tools for my school projects and Flutter development learning, I attempted to use an alternative international number, which resulted in my account being blocked/flagged.
Why this is important: As a student in Egypt, I have limited resources and no access to international payment methods. I was really looking forward to the free credits to explore and build AI-driven applications.
Account Details:

-
Email: kerollosm70@gmail.com
-
Region: Egypt (+20)
-
Primary Goal: Learning and building educational AI projects.
I have already sent an email to support, but I am posting here hoping for a quicker resolution from the community moderators. I would appreciate it if someone could look into this and help me get my account verified manually.
Thank you for supporting young developers!
Best regards, Kerollos Melad
