## About

Semiconductor manufacturer providing processors, drivers, and support for computing hardware

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria, with a community report in February 2026 confirming the Intel website is unreachable from Syrian connections. A community volunteer contacted the company's export and sanctions teams in March 2026, citing the lifting of sanctions, and no response has been recorded yet.

## Community reports

- 2026-03-24 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer emailed Intel's export classification and sanctions teams at export.classification@intel.com and sanctions@intel.com requesting that service access be enabled for users in Syria. The email referenced the December 2025 OFAC sanctions lift and EU sanctions removal, with links to official U.S. Treasury documentation and unblocksyria.com/resources. This is the first recorded outreach to Intel regarding access restrictions for Syrian users.
- 2026-02-12 — Evidence Added. User from Syria reports Intel website is blocked when accessed via DSL connection. (evidence: https://api.unblocksyria.com/files/evidence/a148vk4907fhhz02leuelcif/ueuwrhrsqqw0jmy04uh8rpmf-screenshot-2026-02-13-010219.png)

## 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.
