## About

Google's advertising program that lets website owners earn revenue from display ads

## Activity summary

Restricted for users in Syria. Community verification in February 2026 confirmed the dashboard loads but Syria is absent from the country list at signup, blocking new publishers; payouts also depend on banking infrastructure that does not yet reach Syria. A community volunteer contacted the company in March 2026 asking it to enable Syria and add payment options. No response yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-03-04 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer emailed Google's cloud compliance team at google-cloud-compliance@google.com requesting the activation of Google AdSense services in Syria. The email urged Google to enable Syria as a valid geographic option for postal verification (PIN), suggested alternative payment channels such as Western Union for disbursing publisher earnings, and requested an immediate compliance review citing the lifting of international sanctions on Syria.
- 2026-02-16 — Verified. Community verification confirmed Google AdSense remains restricted for Syria. The AdSense website loads and the dashboard is accessible, but Syria is not listed in the country selection dropdown during account setup. This prevents new Syrian publishers from registering, confirming the restricted status.

- 2026-02-15 — Investigated. This is a complicated issue. While AdSense can technically display ads on Syrian websites, it cannot pay publishers without banking or payment infrastructure in Syria. Google needs a way to send revenue payments to Syrian account holders, which requires local bank transfers, wire transfer support, or an alternative payment method. Full functionality depends on financial infrastructure entering Syria.

## 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.
