• Log in to your account using your username and password.

2.​

• Once logged in, visit the Account Deletion page directly by going to:
  Delete Your Instagram Account

• Instagram will ask you why you want to delete your account. Select an option from the dropdown menu. If you don’t want to choose a reason, you can select "Something else."

4.​

• After selecting a reason, Instagram will ask you to enter your password again to confirm that it's really you.

5.​

• Once you've entered your password, click on the "Permanently delete my account" button.
• Your account will be deactivated immediately, and Instagram will begin the process of permanently deleting your account.

6.​

• Instagram will delete your account permanently within 30 days. During this time, your account will be deactivated but not fully deleted. After 30 days, all your data, posts, and account details will be permanently erased.
