Restricted for users in Syria. A community volunteer reached out to the company in May 2026 citing the lifting of sanctions, but received only automated AI bot replies with no human escalation. In June 2026 a human representative confirmed the company cannot onboard candidates from Syria because of restrictions imposed by its onboarding partner Deel; the volunteer noted a parallel outreach to Deel is underway and kept the case open.

You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Micro1 or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.
Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
Contact Micro1 Support:
Micro1 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 Micro1 directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
