To sign up for Gmail, create a Google Account. You can use the username and password to sign in to Gmail and other Google products like YouTube, Google Play, and Google Drive.

  • Go to the Google Account creation page.
  • Follow the steps on the screen to set up your account.
  • Use the account you created to sign in to Gmail.

The Username I want is taken

You won't be able to get a certain Gmail address if the username you requested is:

  • Already being used
  • Very similar to an existing username (for example, if example@gmail.com already exists, you can't use examp1e@gmail.com)
  • The same as a username that someone used in the past and then deleted
  • Reserved by Google to prevent spam or abuse
Someone is Impersonating Me


If you believe someone has created a Gmail address to try to impersonate your identity, you can:
  • File a report with the Internet Crime Complaint Center
  • Contact your state's Office of Consumer Protection
Unfortunately, Gmail is unable to participate in mediations involving third parties regarding impersonation. Learn more in Gmail Terms of Use.
