## About

Online meetings, video conferencing, and business calling service

## Activity summary

Accessible in Syria, confirmed by community testing in April 2026. New accounts can sign up, sign in, create chat rooms, and add contacts, with no Syria-specific block or sanctions notice observed. Creating new meetings is unavailable, but this stems from the company's global end-of-support for the service, not a Syrian restriction.

## Community reports

- 2026-04-06 — Verified. Community testing from Syria (Damascus, Firefox on Linux) confirmed that Amazon Chime is accessible. The marketing site at aws.amazon.com/chime loads normally, and on app.chime.aws new accounts can sign up, sign in, create chat rooms, and add contacts. Creating new meetings is unavailable, but this is due to Amazon's global end-of-support for Amazon Chime announced for February 20, 2026 — only accounts created before that date retain meeting hosting. The Android app is also downloadable and usable with the same global limitation. No Syria-specific block or sanctions notice was observed. Status updated from blocked to accessible.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025.
