## About

Danish online bank and multi-asset trading platform offering stocks, bonds, funds, forex and derivatives to retail and institutional clients.

## Activity summary

Saxo Bank blocks account access for clients physically located in Syria and does not onboard Syrian residents. Its Dubai representative office confirmed this in September 2026 and pointed to its published list of serviced countries, without offering to review the restriction.

## Community reports

- 2026-09-01 — Declined. Saxo Bank's Dubai representative office replied that it is not onboarding clients residing in Syria, and that the office serves Qatar, the UAE and Saudi Arabia only. It pointed to the published list of serviced countries and did not offer a review. The reply was written by a person.
- 2026-08-28 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer asked Saxo Bank's Dubai representative office to review the Syria-wide restriction in its MENA help centre, which blocks login and portfolio management from inside the country. The request cited the revoked US sanctions programme.

## 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.
