## About

Islamic bank in Dubai offering Sharia-compliant current and savings accounts, cards, financing, and online and mobile banking.

## Activity summary

Status from Syria not yet established. A volunteer wrote to the bank in September 2026 asking it to review access for Syrian users, the first outreach, and nobody has tested the site or app from inside the country.

## Community reports

- 2026-09-07 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer emailed Emirates Islamic asking it to review the block on Syrian users, noting that the United States removed Syria from its state sponsors of terrorism list in August 2026 and that remaining measures target named individuals. This is the first outreach to the bank.

## 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.
