Country by country
Claude in each country we test
Blocked means every network we test there failed to open claude.ai, twice, while it opened elsewhere. “Turned away by the site” means Claude itself refused visitors from that country.

Claude blocked where you are?
A VPN connects you through a server in another country, so a local block on Claude no longer applies. Where VPNs themselves are blocked, you need one that can disguise its traffic.

History
Changes for Claude
No confirmed changes since monitoring began on 29 Sep 2026. When a block appears or lifts, and a second test agrees, it shows up here.
Method
How we test
- Test machines on two big home-internet providers in each country open the homepage every day.
- A failure counts only when it happens twice on the same network, while the site opens from other countries.
- A change is published only after a second test, a few hours later, agrees. It’s dated from the first sighting.
- We test websites over home broadband. Apps, calls and mobile networks can behave differently.
