Short answer: Facebook Content Monetization is available in 150+ countries, including Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, Indonesia and the Philippines. Your Page's country decides if you can join; your audience's country decides how much you earn.

Meta expands and occasionally pauses countries; the authoritative check is inside your Page: Professional Dashboard → Monetization. If your country is not supported it says so there.
Not eligible / restricted
- Countries under sanctions (e.g. Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba) — no monetization.
- Some smaller markets are "invite-only" for Content Monetization even if in-stream ads were available before.
- Facebook itself is restricted in a few countries (e.g. China) — check locally.
Why your audience's country matters more
A Pakistani Page with a Pakistani audience can be fully monetized and still earn a few dollars a month, because advertisers pay very little for Pakistani views. The same Page with US/UK viewers earns many times more. That is why the real question is not "is my country eligible?" (it is) but "who watches my content?" — and why we teach English, AI-made, global-niche content from day one.
Pakistan specifically
- Eligible for Content Monetization, in-stream ads and Stars.
- Payouts to Pakistani banks in the Page owner's name; tax form required; non-filers face higher withholding.

TikTok is the opposite
TikTok's Creator Rewards Program is open in only a handful of countries — and Pakistan is not one of them. If you also want TikTok income, read TikTok monetization countries.

Which countries are eligible for Facebook monetization?
150+ countries including Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, Indonesia, the Philippines, the US, UK and most of Europe and Latin America.

Do I need a VPN to monetize Facebook in Pakistan?
No. Facebook monetizes Pakistani Pages directly. A VPN is only relevant for a separate foreign-audience setup, and mixing locations on one account is risky.
Why does my monetized Page earn so little?
Because your viewers are in a low-RPM country. Earnings follow the audience, not the Page owner. Target English-speaking viewers to earn more.
