How to unlock a disabled Instagram account

In August 2023 Instagram started disabling our local accounts for no apparent reason. Here's what it looks like.

A disabled account can't be seen by users and the owner can't post in it. But the blocking can be appealed.

  1. Submit the required information in English: Form 1, Form 2.
  2. Wait for a reply to the email. Normally, the account is unblocked after this letter.
  3. If the request is denied and you receive the letter as seen in the picture below, we respond: "Specify the reason for blocking the account?"
  4. We get a reply with apologies and unblocking.
