How can I unblock Perplexity’s regional restrictions with a residential IP?

In recent years, AI tools have emerged in large numbers. Among them, Perplexity has been welcomed by many users due to its powerful search + AI question-answering capabilities.
But the problem is: many people will encounter regional restrictions – in certain countries or regions, Perplexity cannot be registered or used normally.

So what can be done? The answer is: residential IP.

Why do you encounter regional restrictions?

AI tools like Perplexity often use the user’s IP address to determine whether you are within the service support range:

If the IP belongs to an unopened region, access will be directly restricted.

Even if you can open the page, you may not be able to register/log in, or even get the prompt “Service not available in your region”.

This is called IP region blocking.

Why choose a residential IP?

Many people’s first instinct is to use a VPS or data center proxy, but this approach is often unstable:

Data center IPs (data center IPs) are too easily identified, and if risk control is triggered, the account may be immediately blocked.

Free or cheap proxies often experience disconnections, resulting in a poor user experience.

In contrast, residential IPs are connected to real home broadband and appear to the platform as ordinary users:

They are closer to a real access environment and less likely to be blocked.

They offer excellent stability and less frequent disconnections.

They support multiple regions, making it easy to switch to a country supported by Perplexity.

Solution

We use the fingerprint browser + residential IP 

After purchasing the node, copy the node to the fingerprint browser creation window 

If there is no problem with the detection, you can create it, then open the new window and search for the Perplexity official website in the browser 

You can see that it is now accessible normally and it is very smooth to use without any lag

Summary

If you’re experiencing issues with Perplexity while overseas, a residential IP is the most reliable solution:

It provides a genuine and trusted network environment;

Easily bypasses regional restrictions;

It can also be used with a fingerprint browser for secure multi-account operation.

In our experience, using a residential IP to access Perplexity not only allows for smooth registration and usage, but also ensures long-term stability.
