Blocked in Syria, first reported in February 2026, as the platform lists Syria as unsupported for accounts and transfers. A community volunteer contacted the company in February, which declined to restore access, citing that companies from Syria cannot apply and transfers to Syrian banks are unsupported, while leaving the door open for the future. The team sent an official follow-up in March 2026; access remains blocked.

You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Airwallex or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.
Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
