About Facebook
Facebook is Meta's social network for personal profiles, pages, groups and Marketplace. It is also used to log in to many other websites, so when facebook.com does not answer, the problem can spread to apps that rely on it. Global Facebook outages happen a few times a year and are usually short. A failure limited to one country more often means filtering by authorities or providers, which is common during elections, protests and periods of unrest.

Frequently asked questions
Is Facebook down right now?
Not for most of the world. In our latest check on 13 November 2026, 01:54 UTC facebook.com opened from 80 of 81 countries. If it does not open for you, the cause is more likely local: your provider, your network or a restriction in your country. Run a new check to see the current result for your country.
Why does Facebook not open in my country?
When facebook.com works in other countries but not in yours, there are three usual reasons: a restriction ordered by authorities, filtering by your provider, or a network problem between your provider and Facebook. A different security certificate, a reset connection or a wrong address from DNS are typical signs of filtering; a timeout can be either filtering or a network fault.
How is facebook.com checked?
From measurement points in about 90 countries we look up the address of facebook.com with the local DNS and open a secure connection to it, checking that the site returns its own certificate. We do not load the page content, and we do not publish which networks the measurements came from.
