2 Ways to Change Your Age (and Birth Date) on Discord

Quick Tips
  • Discord prioritizes safety, so there’s no built-in option to edit your age. Instead, submit a verification request with a photo ID to ensure your birth date is accurate.
  • If you can’t provide ID verification or prefer a clean slate, consider creating a new Discord account with the correct birth date from the beginning.

Things to Know Before Changing Your Age on Discord 

1. Discord’s ‘Terms of Service’ clearly state that users must be at least 13 years old to use the platform. Falsifying your age to appear older or younger than you are can lead to account suspension or termination.

2. Discord has community guidelines to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for all users. While changing your displayed age might seem harmless, it’s essential to abide by these guidelines and avoid misleading information that could disrupt the community or violate the terms of service.

Note: You can execute the below methods using any device or operating system.
