Sanctions are lifted. Most companies just haven't updated their policies. A word from inside DigiKey Electronics can change that.

Tips for advocating

  • Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams.
  • Reference the lifted sanctions.
  • Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, DigiKey is currently blocked in Syria. Users in Syria cannot access this service. We are tracking the situation and advocating for change.

Most likely a company policy that has not caught up with the law. The US sanctions program on Syria ended on 1 July 2025, the EU lifted its economic sanctions in May 2025, and Syria was removed from the US list of State Sponsors of Terrorism in August 2026. Many companies set their Syria restrictions before these changes and have not updated them. This page shows the evidence we have for DigiKey and any reply from the company.

You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting DigiKey directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
