Creating New Yahoo Mail Account Process
Yahoo email sign up form requires that you fill your;
- Full name
- Email Address
- Country code and phone number
- Date of Birth and
- Gender
1. Your Full Name:
Your First name comes first before your last name. I prefer using the name I want Yahoo to always display in my account to come first as the first name.
For example, Your name is; John Smit
You can file “Smit” first if that is what you want Yahoo to display on your account whenever you login your account (after the registration).

The image above clearly shows how to fill
2. Email Address:
The email address is also another compulsory part of the form you can’t skip too.
The form serves as;
- if you want to create a fresh email address.
This means that the email doesn’t exist before or that you don’t want to link the email with another account.

while the second options is; if you already have a registered email account which could be GMAIL, OUTLOOK MAIL, AOL MAIL, YANDEX MAIL, HOTMAIL, etc…
then you have to click on the click below the ” email address” form.
You are simply identifying that you don’t want to register a new email address. Rather you want to link an already existing account with the new Yahoo account you are about creating.
This also means that you want your old email address to be your login ID for your new Yahoo email account.
Therefore, you have to indicate this option by clicking the link; “I’d rather use my own email address”
you see the email form box label changes to “Your Current Email Address” once you are the right form. However, you can click the link above to land you on the form.

you are meant to enter an email that already
3. Country code and phone number
The country code and phone number have to rime. Meaning that if you are signing up the new Account Yahoo Registration from the USA then the country code has to be a US code for example +1. That means also you have to enter a US phone number.
This part of the form is also a very important aspect as the phone number is used to receive the verification code from Yahoo to complete your registration.
It also can be used for retrieving your accounts when you lost your password or any part of your login information.
Wrong selection of country code and input of phone number will disallow the continuation of this registration.

But you will not be seeing the above option to select a country, that is if you will be using an existing email account to register for your new Yahoo
Likewise the option to enter phone number will not be included.
The reason is this; information used on your existing account will be used for this new account. So that is the reason you won’t be seeing this option.
But all this information are editable (apart from your new email address) after creating the account.
4. Date of Birth
Of course, this is also another important part of the registration form you can’t omit.

From the drop-down you select month, then type in your day and year.
This option is available whether you are creating an email from scratch or using an existing email address to sign up.
4. Gender
This is where you select whether you are male or female. However, this part is optional. Meaning you can skip and move on to the next stage.

once you tap your
Other mail services such as GMAIL has an extra option of selecting gender as CUSTOM. yet you still have to specify your gender but will not be shown to the public cos you selected custom.
Now you are done filling the form, then click the “CONTINUE” button
This takes you to the next stage where you have to verify your account.
This way, Yahoo will be sending a verification code to your phone number via an SMS.
You have the option to request the code re-send to you if you did not receive it. I advise that you wait up to 10 to 30 second of the time for the code to arrives via SMS.
once you receive it, enter the code just the way its sent to you.
Then click on Finish or Verify or Sign up… as the case may be.
But this is the final step of the New Yahoo registration “THAT IS IF” you registered the yahoo address ID from scratch.
Meanwhile, verification code (or link) will be sent to that email address you have used for the registration if you use an already
All you will be required is to
