You can bypass the phone-number roadblock by registering with an email address instead. Just head to the international QQ sign-up page (ssl.zc.qq.com/v3/index-en.html) and switch from the default phone registration to the email option at the top of the form. Enter your valid email, choose a secure password, complete the CAPTCHA, and submit. Within moments you’ll receive a confirmation link in your inbox—click it, and your new QQ ID is activated. From that point on you can log in to the QQ app using your email and password. If you later need phone verification for features like password recovery or finding friends, it’s best to use a physical SIM card (either your own or a friend’s) rather than a VoIP or virtual number, since those are often blocked by Tencent’s system.
