Bitcoin access is restricted in Syria

Read the legal section below before acting on anything here.

Bitcoin access is restricted in Syria, and CEX.IO does not serve residents of Syria either: Syria is on the list of restricted countries that CEX.IO itself publishes, quoted below with the date it was read. Syria has no domestic law regulating or banning bitcoin; the constraint has been sanctions and a shattered banking sector.

Where this comes from

Derived from CEX.IO's support article listing the countries and territories it does not currently support, https://support.cex.io/en/articles/4560858-the-following-countries-and-territories-are-not-currently-supported-by-cex-io, read on 2026-09-05. It is an exclusion list: every country listed here is a sourced no, and a country absent from it is unknown rather than served. The article gives international and local regulation as the reason, and also names North Korea, which has no guide on this site and is not listed; availability by US state is covered on the state pages from the separate licence table.
