Frequently Ask Questions
What is GMB reinstatement?
GMB reinstatement is the process of recovering a suspended or disabled Google My Business profile, ensuring your business listing complies with Google’s guidelines and becomes active again.
Why was my GMB profile suspended?
GMB profiles can be suspended for various reasons, such as inaccurate information, policy violations, duplicate listings, or suspicious activity. A detailed review of your profile can identify the exact reason.
How long does the reinstatement process take?
The timeframe varies depending on the complexity of the issue. Most reinstatements take between 5 to 15 business days, but some cases may require additional time if further documentation is needed.

Not all suspensions can be resolved, especially if the listing has severe violations of Google’s guidelines. However, we analyze each case thoroughly to provide the best chance of reinstatement.
What documents or information do I need to provide for reinstatement?
Typically, you’ll need proof of business legitimacy, such as a utility bill, business license, or storefront photos, along with other details matching your GMB profile.
Do you guarantee reinstatement of my GMB profile?
While we strive for success with every case and have a high success rate, no service can guarantee reinstatement since the final decision lies with Google.
