## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, confirmed by community testing in April 2026. The marketing page loads, but every support and sign-up path is geo-blocked: console and account flows return 400 "Access Restricted" or "Website Temporarily Unavailable" pages, and the sales and compliance forms exclude Syria. No outreach to the company has been made yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-04-07 — Verified. Community testing confirmed Amazon Translate remains blocked for Syrian users. The marketing page loads, but every support path is broken: chat and phone support return 403 errors; sales and compliance forms exclude Syria from their country dropdowns; technical and account/billing support redirect to 400 'Access Restricted' pages stating service is unavailable from the user's region. The Support Plans flow loads but 'Get started' and 'Choose a plan' both yield 400 'Access Restricted' pages, while 'Contact sales' opens yet another form excluding Syria. Clicking 'Get started with Amazon Translate' redirects to AWS sign-in where existing-account login fails, and creating a new AWS account redirects to 'Website Temporarily Unavailable'.

## 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. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
