## About

Visual collaboration platform with infinite whiteboards for teams and brainstorming

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. The company was first contacted in December 2025 and again in January 2026; its support team initially declined, citing the U.S. trade embargo, but after a detailed reply documenting the lifted sanctions, it said it had passed the case to the relevant team for review. The team sent a further official follow-up in March 2026, and no resolution has been reached.

## Official timeline

## Community reports

- 2026-01-26 — Under Company Review. Thanks for getting back to us, and sharing your feedback. I understand that, based on the documents you provided, the United States no longer maintains a comprehensive Syria Sanctions program. I've passed your feedback on to the respective team, and as soon as I have an update from them, I'll be sure to let you know. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.
- 2026-01-26 — Follow-up Sent. Thank you for your response, but I need to respectfully point out that the information you've provided is factually incorrect and outdated. The United States no longer maintains a comprehensive Syria Sanctions program. This is not a matter of "limited exceptions"—the sanctions were fully revoked: - June 30, 2025: Executive Order 14312 terminated the Syria Sanctions Program (effective July 1, 2025) - August 26, 2025: OFAC removed the Syrian Sanctions Regulations (31 CFR Part 542) from the Code of Federal Regulations - December 18, 2025: Congress repealed the Caesar Act The U.S. State Department now explicitly states: "The United States no longer maintains a comprehensive Syria Sanctions program." https://www.state.gov/syria-sanctions There is no "additional compliance analysis" or "regulatory filings" required. The legal framework that previously restricted services in Syria no longer exists. GitHub, Google, Steam, and Binance have all reviewed these changes and restored access to Syria. I kindly ask that this ticket be escalated to your legal and compliance team for proper review—not closed. We have compiled official U.S. government resources to assist: https://unblocksyria.com/en/resources I'm happy to provide any additional documentation needed.
- 2026-01-26 — Declined. Thanks for reaching out to the Miro Support team! I understand that Miro is a core product development and collaboration tool for your organization, and that you’d like your employees in Syria to be able to access it, given recent sanctions updates. I'm here to help! Upon checking internally, I'd like to clarify that while recent changes in the sanctions have created limited exceptions for certain software products, Syria continues to remain under a U.S. trade embargo. The current exceptions are narrow and require additional compliance analysis and potentially regulatory filings. I flagged your request with the dedicated team, and please be sure that we will announce any changes to our service offerings in Syria through our official channels -please check the Miro Blog for new updates. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience. In the meantime, let me close the ticket to keep your inbox free of extra notifications. If you have any follow-up questions, feel free to reply to this thread. The ticket will be automatically reopened, and I'll be more than happy to assist you further.
- 2026-01-23 — Contacted Company. We reached out to Miro, asking them to review and lift Syria access restrictions following the official OFAC sanctions rollback, as we’re actively building and scaling an engineering team in 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. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
