## About

Global money transfer service for sending funds online or in person

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. The team emailed the company in February 2026 requesting a review of the Syria restrictions under the post-sanctions legal framework. Some of the messages bounced as undeliverable, leaving delivery to the compliance team uncertain, and no response has been received.

## Official timeline

- 2026-02-09 — Contacted Company. Outreach email sent to Ria at compliance@riafinancial.com and legal@riafinancial.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions for Ria under the current post-sanctions legal framework.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-09 — Note. Emails to Ria (Euronet/EEFT) bounced as undeliverable. The recipients were not found. The outreach email did not reach Ria's compliance team.

## 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.
