The team contacted the company in February 2026 requesting a review under the post-sanctions framework; no resolution has followed.
Contacted Company
Outreach email sent to Freelancer at support@freelancer.com and legal@freelancer.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for Freelancer under the current post-sanctions legal framework.

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