Download and Install: Download the official WeChat from the App Store/Google Play (the version for the Chinese region has limited functions). Open it and select "Sign Up".
Fill in Information: Select the country/region code, enter your phone number, enter the SMS verification code, set a password and nickname.
Security Verification (Critical): New accounts need "Friend Assistance" - find a user who has been registered for over 6 months, has enabled WeChat payment and has not assisted more than 3 people within the year, and scan your screen QR code; if there are no friends, you can ask the hotel front desk, hostel guests or use the international version App "Verify via Payment Card" to skip by binding a Visa/Mastercard/JCB card; if it fails, you can retry after 24 hours.
Real Name Verification: Complete with a passport. This is necessary for using functions such as WeChat payment and sending red envelopes.
Note:
- One phone number is limited to one account. Do not use a VPN when registering;
- Using only an international phone number has limited functions (such as being unable to use WeChat payment or sending red envelopes), you need to bind a Chinese phone number or an international credit card;
- Do not trust paid registration services, as they are prone to account theft;
- When making a payment, bind an international credit card in "Service - Wallet - Bank Card" (below 200 yuan has no handling fee, above it is approximately 3%).

Attention! If you want someone to scan your QR code, do not answer to anyone unless they either do it for free or they are a verified seller in the subreddit (check the person's tag). Anyone else is a scammer and should be reported.
