Please check your spam folder if you can't find the Samsung-sent verification email. The following procedures can be used to get another verification email if you're still having trouble finding it:

  • Get a second confirmation email on your phone or tablet: Open Settings, then select Accounts and backup from the menu. After selecting Manage accounts, select Add account. Choose Samsung Account, then enter your login information. A fresh email will be sent to your linked email address if you want to resend the verification email.

 

  • Receive another verification email via website: Navigate to and open the Samsung account website. Sign in using your account credentials and select Resend the verification email. A new email will be sent to your associated email address.

Make sure you have a reliable Wi-Fi or mobile data connection and that the number is not blacklisted on your device if you are not receiving a verification code through text message. In case you have lost access to the registered two-step verification number, learn how to reset and update your phone number for the two-step verification process.
