User level: Level 1 (4 points)For the past month, I’ve been unable to log in to https://account.apple.com/ due to this error:
“Too many verification codes have been sent. Enter the last code you received or try again later.”
Other services, including idmsa, work fine. I use a +380 Ukrainian phone number.

If you aren't receiving the codes then verify you are using a trusted device or trusted number. You can only enter a code request a certain number of times before you have to wait until Apple will let you try again. Refer to the articles 'Two-factor authentication for Apple ID' ( Two-factor authentication for Apple Account - Apple Support ) and 'Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication' ( Get a verification code and sign in with two-factor authentication - Apple Support ). Various sections contain information that is useful in understanding about the trusted devices (an iPhone, iPad, or Mac that Apple knows is yours) system, and how to get a verification code on a trusted device or at a telephone number.
If you had set up an Account Recovery Contact ( Set up a recovery contact for your Apple Account - Apple Support ) you can also get a code that way.
If you can’t sign in, access a trusted device, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery to regain access to your account. This article explains how to recover your Apple ID after a waiting period - If you forgot your password and can’t sign in to your Apple Account - Apple Support (Unfortunately it used to be in a clear, separate support article but then Apple placed in at the end of an article that has an unrelated title -- some people may be using old links that only refer to the later stages of account recovery.)
