How can I log into my iCloud without using the verification code sent to the phone number?

I need help with signing into iCloud. I am in a different country using a new phone number and do not have access to my old phone number (or the messages it receives). For logging into iCloud it requires a verification code being sent to my old number. I am not offered the option to send the verification code to my new number. How can I get the verification code be sent to my new number or how I log into iCloud without the verification code?

If you have setup 2-step verification, you cannot login without the code. That's the whole point of 2-step verification.


If you did not setup or have access to another trusted device, you can use your recovery key to login and reset your account settings - see Two-step verification for Apple ID - Apple Support


By logging in to your AppleID in a web browser with your password and recovery key, you can set a new trusted device and/or SMS text number to receive codes at.
