Facebook is more than just a social media app. In order to cater to its audience’s needs and compete with the other tech giants, Meta has been adding more diverse features to Facebook.
Facebook Jobs (currently available only in the U.S. and Canada) and Facebook Dating are some services that the app offers.
Additionally, Facebook Marketplace is an online marketplace that is a combination of social media and an e-commerce platform where users can buy and sell things to people nearby, using the mobile app or the desktop version. The offers range from second-hand goods such as electronics, furniture, clothes and even vehicles. However, you can also buy products from manufacturers.
In order to suggest nearby deals, Facebook Marketplace is using your location. However, sometimes Facebook can make a mistake when detecting your location or perhaps you like to browse offerings or place your products in another location.
In this case, you need to change your location on Facebook Marketplace. Keep on reading below to learn how you can do this on Android or iPhone, and on the website.

You can also change your location with VPN (Virtual Private Network), and it will be applied to the Facebook Marketplace as well. There are many VPN apps available on the internet that can help you change your location, but we recommend using Nord VPN as the most reliable and trusted VPN app.
You can download Nord VPN both on Android and iOS. Once you install the app, create an account and open it. You can simply change the location of your device.
Once you change your location with Nord VPN, open Facebook Marketplace and you’ll see your new location there as well.
You can easily change the location in Facebook Marketplace, and for a seller or buyer from any location in the countries in which Facebook Marketplace is available.
If you want to create a listing, your current location will be used. But you can change it when you create the listing.
