Activity Summary
Restricted for users in Syria: the Global USD Account cannot be opened, and the ACH account depends on it. Fasset says the restriction follows international banking regulations but could not confirm from customer-facing information whether it, a banking partner or a third party imposes it, and has noted the question for internal review.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fasset 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 Fasset directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
