Restricted for users in Syria, verified in March 2026, when community testing found the marketing site loads but the login and sign-up pages return a regional unavailability error. The team contacted the company that same month; its support system sent only an automated acknowledgment, and the case remains under review with no resolution yet.
Company Responded

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 Contentful 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.
Contact Contentful Support:
Contentful is restricted in Syria. Access may require workarounds or may not be fully functional. We are monitoring the situation.
Many international services blocked access to Syria due to previous sanctions and compliance policies. Even as sanctions are being reviewed, some companies have not yet restored access. Unblock Syria tracks these services and advocates for change.
You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting Contentful directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
