## About

JetBrains extension for Visual Studio enhancing .NET and C# development

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. Community testing in March 2026 confirmed that JetBrains blocks downloads, activation, and purchases for Syria with an HTTP 451 error citing export control. The team contacted the company in April 2026, but JetBrains declined that same month, stating its export control policy does not allow sales to Syria and has not changed.

## Official timeline

- 2026-04-13 — Declined. JetBrains' legal department responded to the unblocking request for DataGrip, ReSharper, and related IDEs via compliance@jetbrains.com. The response stated that JetBrains remains subject to export control and operational restrictions that do not allow processing sales to Syria, as outlined in their Export Control Policy. The representative confirmed that their policies have not changed and that any future updates would be reflected in their legal documentation. This is a clear decline with no indication of an active review or timeline for reconsideration.
- 2026-04-11 — Contacted Company. Official outreach email sent to JetBrains at compliance@jetbrains.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for DataGrip, ReSharper, and related IDEs under the current OFAC and BIS framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-03-20 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that ReSharper remains blocked in Syria due to JetBrains export control restrictions. The main website and download page load normally, but clicking any download button briefly shows a thank-you page before redirecting to an HTTP 451 error: "Unavailable For Legal Reasons — unable to provide our products and services to you due to export control regulations." This applies to the Visual Studio installer, command-line tools, web installer, and download buttons. The ReSharper SDK is still available via NuGet. Installing the VS Code extension is possible, but activation fails with an error, and a notification states it is "unavailable for legal reasons." Purchasing a subscription is blocked — selecting Syria returns "purchases in Syrian Arab Republic are restricted." Account registration works, but Syria is not listed in the country/region options for payment methods.

## 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.
