Q: Verifying additional email addresses for Apple

I recently added an email address to my Apple account and got an email asking me to verify my address.

Does Apple required verification for a new email address?

Thanks

Hello there, jcbraun.

 

When making particular changes to your Apple ID, you will be asked to verify that change/update via email. The following Knowledge Base article explains:

How do I verify my Apple ID email address? 

When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. This helps protect your identity and ensures you can receive important account notifications from Apple, such as password reset emails. Several Apple services, such as iCloud, iTunes, iMessage, and FaceTime, require you to use a verified email address as your Apple ID.

To verify your email address, click the Verify Now link in the verification email. Sign in with your Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. Use these steps if you didn't get the email. You might be asked to verify your email using a 6-digit code.

Kind Regards,
