## About

Music streaming service with playlists, podcasts, and personalized recommendations

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, confirmed by a community report in February 2026 showing the site loads its branding but returns a generic error with no music content, consistent with a geo-block. A community volunteer contacted Deezer support that same month, citing the December 2025 lifting of the US trade embargo. A support agent replied positively within the hour and said they would forward the request internally. No resolution yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-20 — Company Responded. A Deezer customer care agent responded within 25 minutes of the outreach request. The agent acknowledged the request to enable service access in Syria, described it positively, and confirmed they will forward it to the appropriate department internally. The agent also suggested posting the idea on the Deezer Community forum for additional visibility and community votes.
- 2026-02-20 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer contacted Deezer support at support@deezer.zendesk.com requesting that service access be enabled for users in Syria. The email referenced the December 2025 U.S. Treasury announcement lifting the comprehensive trade embargo on Syria, the OFAC sanctions programs overview confirming Syria is no longer embargoed, and supporting documentation from unblocksyria.com/resources. The volunteer noted that several other companies have already restored access.
- 2026-02-15 — Investigated. Community report from inside Syria via ADSL (Tarassul, Damascus). Deezer loads its branding and search bar but returns a generic error page: "Oops... it did it again — The page you requested couldn't be found." No music content, playlists, or streaming functionality is accessible. This appears to be geo-blocking disguised as a 404 error — Syria is not a supported region for Deezer.

## 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.
