## About

Enterprise resource planning software for finance, supply chain, and HR management

## Activity summary

Partially blocked in Syria, verified in February 2026: the marketing site and basic learning content load, but enterprise and cloud products are blocked, and SAP's export-control page still lists Syria among restricted countries. The team contacted SAP in March 2026, and its export-control legal team replied in April 2026 acknowledging the sanctions lift and confirming that its Syria business policy is under review. No resolution yet.

## Official timeline

- 2026-04-14 — Under Company Review. SAP's Export Control Legal team confirmed that SAP is aware of the lifting of sanctions on Syria by both the United States and the European Union, and that SAP's business policy regarding Syria is currently under review. This is a substantive human response from a senior legal counsel in SAP's Export Control function, indicating active internal deliberation beyond a generic acknowledgment.
- 2026-04-07 — Company Responded. SAP's Export Control Legal team responded to the official outreach via a senior SAP legal counsel. The reply confirmed that the original email to the SAP Privacy team was internally forwarded to the Export Control function, and asked for additional time to formulate a substantive response. This is a human, named acknowledgment from the relevant compliance department, indicating that the request has reached the correct internal team and is being routed for a proper review.
- 2026-03-31 — Contacted Company. Official outreach to privacy@sap.com. SAP export control page still lists Syria alongside Cuba, Iran, NK. Enterprise products blocked. Zoho, Zendesk, Google Ads accessible peers.

## Community reports

- 2026-02-16 — Verified. Community report documented that SAP's "Export Control and Sanctions Compliance" page explicitly lists Syria among restricted destinations alongside Cuba, Iran, and North Korea. While sap.com loads and learning.sap.com offers partial access to basic courses and SAP Learning Journeys, all enterprise products and cloud services are blocked: SAP S/4HANA, SAP CX, Fiori Launchpad (public cloud tenant), and SAP Learning Hub all refuse connections from Syrian IPs. Access is restored when using a VPN with a non-restricted country's IP. Status remains "limited" as the marketing site and basic learning content are accessible.

- 2026-02-14 — Evidence Added. Community report: User from Syria reports SAP website is accessible without VPN and can be browsed normally. However, Syria is not found in the list of supported countries on the platform.

## 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.
