facebookfacebook-privacy

There are mainly 3 lists and custom options to create a new list.

Close, Restricted and Acquaintances

Now, if you add a friend to say Close list, will he or she get notified or is there any possibility he can find it out through some Facebook functionality?

Best Answer

No, your friends will not be notified if you add them to lists. As per Facebook Help article on the subject.

"You can use lists to organize your friends on Facebook. Using a list, you can post an update for specific people, like your coworkers or friends who live near you. You can also see updates from specific groups of people (example: close friends, family).

You can add or remove friends from these lists at any time. People won’t be notified when you add them to these lists."
