How to Use Meta Muse Outside the US (2026): What Works

Muse only works in the US and Canada. Here's what happens if you sign up from elsewhere, and the real ways to use Muse and its model today.

Short answer

Right now, you can't officially use Meta's Muse agent outside the US and Canada. Signing up from another country puts you on a waitlist. But you can still use Muse Spark, the model behind Muse, through Meta AI or on this site — and join the waitlist to get told when Muse opens near you.

What happens when you sign up from another country

We tested this ourselves. Using a UK connection, we signed up with a real email and birthday — no VPN tricks, no fake details. After the sign-up form, Muse sent us here instead of into the app:

Muse waitlist page: "Join the waitlist for Muse — Muse isn't available in your country or region yet. We'll let you know when it's available to you."

The message is clear: "Muse isn't available in your country or region yet. We'll let you know when it's available to you." Tapping the button joins the waitlist — it doesn't unlock access.

Your options today

1. Join the official waitlist. It costs nothing, and it's the one path Meta actually offers. When Muse opens in your country, this is how you'll find out first.

2. Use Muse Spark through Meta AI. Muse Spark is the same model that powers the Muse agent — and Meta is bringing it to Meta AI, including inside WhatsApp, in more countries. See how to use it free in WhatsApp →

3. Try Muse Spark right here. Free, 5 messages a day, no sign-up. It's the model only — it can chat and answer questions, but it can't browse the web or complete tasks like the full Muse agent.

4. Run Muse Glimmer on your own computer. If you're comfortable with some setup, Glimmer is Meta's open version of the same model family. It's free, available worldwide, and you can download and run it on a single consumer GPU. What is Muse Glimmer →

What about using a VPN?

Some people try signing up with a US VPN and a new account. We don't recommend it, and here's what we found when we looked into it.

Meta itself has warned against this. Replying to a user on Threads, Meta's official account said a US VPN "doesn't make it officially available" in your country — you'd be "bypassing the geo restriction, risking your account."

It's also more involved than just a VPN. We tested signing up with a fresh browser and a real US IP address. Instead of the waitlist, we reached an age-verification step asking for a credit card — charged $1, refunded in 5-7 business days. Entering a non-US card produced a generic error, not a clear "declined" message. Card verification usually checks that your billing address matches the card issuer's records, so a card without a US billing address may not pass this step, regardless of your IP address. We only tested this once, and Meta hasn't explained how this check works — but it suggests a US VPN alone isn't enough.

Given the account risk Meta itself describes, we're not walking through the steps here.

Will Muse come to your country?

Meta hasn't given a timeline. Its own account has said there's "no timeline yet for other countries."

There's real movement, though: Muse opened in Canada on September 18, 2026, just over a week after its US launch. See the status for every country we track →

FAQ

Does an invite code unlock Muse in my country?
No. An invite code adds free tokens to an account. It doesn't change what country Muse thinks that account is in.
Can I use Muse in WhatsApp outside the US?
Not the full Muse agent. But Meta AI, its free assistant in WhatsApp, is being upgraded to the same Muse Spark model in more countries.
Is Muse available in the UK or India?
Not yet. Both are outside the current US & Canada rollout. See our full country-by-country status →
Is FreeMuseAI the official Muse website?
No. FreeMuseAI is an independent guide and is not affiliated with Meta. The official Muse website is muse.ai.
