## About

German hosting provider offering dedicated servers, cloud computing, and web hosting

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. A user contacted Hetzner's legal team in February 2026 asking it to remove Syria from its restricted-countries list after sanctions were lifted, but the company replied that it had no concrete plans for Syria. In June 2026 a support representative told a community member there were no restrictions on Syrian users, though this was not a verified access test, so the status remains blocked pending confirmation from inside Syria.

## Community reports

- 2026-06-15 — Company Responded. A community member emailed Hetzner asking whether its services are available in Syria. Hetzner's support team replied confirming that there are no restrictions on Syrian users from their side. This is a more positive signal than Hetzner's earlier legal-team response in February 2026, which stated the company had no concrete plans regarding Syria. The platform's blocking status remains unchanged pending verified access testing from inside 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.
