Does a WhatsApp Business QR code expire?
Updated 30 September 2026
No. Your unique WhatsApp Business QR code won't expire unless you reset it or delete your WhatsApp Business account.
- Resetting the code ends the old one, so don't reset a code you have already printed.
- Deleting your WhatsApp Business account also ends it.
- QR codes made for the WhatsApp Business API don't expire automatically either.
