As an administrator of a Facebook page, you may need to remove another admin due to changes in responsibilities or other reasons. The process of removing an admin is straightforward and can be completed in a few simple steps. By following these steps, you can ensure that only authorized individuals have access to manage your Facebook page.
To begin, navigate to your Facebook page and click on “Settings” in the left-hand menu. Then, select “Page Roles” from the list of options. On the “Page Roles” tab, you will see a list of all the admins assigned to your page. To remove an admin, simply click on the “X” next to their name. A confirmation dialog box will appear, asking you to confirm that you want to remove the admin. Click on “Remove” to complete the process.
Please note that only admins with the “Manage Page” permission can remove other admins. If you do not have this permission, you will need to ask another admin to remove the person you wish to remove. Additionally, it’s important to ensure that you have a sufficient number of admins assigned to your page to manage it effectively. Removing an admin without having a backup plan can lead to disruption in page management.

- By phone: Facebook will send a verification code to your mobile phone number. Enter the code to verify your identity.
- By government-issued ID: You can upload a photo of your government-issued ID (such as a passport or driver’s license) to verify your identity.
If you do not have access to any of these options, you can contact Facebook support for assistance.
