Supported Regions Policy

Legal Rights & Agreement Rules · Restriction or exception

Products are available only in the listed countries and regions

Anthropic states that its products and services are available only in the countries and regions listed below. The covered offering is described broadly: the apps (Claude.ai, Claude Code and Cowork), the API and developer platform, and Claude models offered through cloud platforms and authorized resellers. The proposition is a territorial availability rule for the named offering. Territories and dependencies of a listed country are addressed separately in this policy, and any country or region not listed is unsupported under the rule that follows.

Supporting quotations

Anthropic's products and services — including our apps (such as Claude.ai, Claude Code, and Cowork), our API and developer platform, and Claude models offered through cloud platforms and authorized resellers — are available only in the countries and regions listed below.

Qualifications & exceptions

• Availability is limited to the countries and regions listed below.
• The covered offering includes Anthropic's apps, API and developer platform, and Claude models offered through cloud platforms and authorized resellers.

Not stated here

• The policy does not state how availability is detected or enforced.
• The stored copy carries no stated effective date or version label.

Cross-references

• refers to (model-proposed): The policy lists the countries and regions where access is currently offered — The availability rule limits access to 'the countries and regions listed below'; the list card records that list. The rule supplies the restriction; the list supplies the locations, and neither statement substitutes for the other.
• qualified by (model-proposed): Territories and dependencies of a listed country are also supported — The territory sentence extends the availability rule to territories and dependencies of a listed country. It therefore qualifies the locations the availability rule names, without creating a separate list or displacing the unlisted-region rule.

Territories and dependencies of a listed country are also supported

The policy extends support to territories and dependencies of a listed country, giving Puerto Rico as a territory of the United States as an example. The extension is tied to the territory or dependency relationship to a country that appears on the list; it is not a separate list. The policy does not enumerate covered territories or dependencies or state the test used to identify one, so the treatment of a specific territory may remain unclear where that relationship is disputed.

Supporting quotations

Territories and dependencies of a listed country are also supported (for example, Puerto Rico as a territory of the United States).

Qualifications & exceptions

• Only territories and dependencies of a listed country are included; the policy gives Puerto Rico as an example of a United States territory.

Not stated here

• The policy does not enumerate every territory or dependency or state the test for identifying one.
• It does not state how a disputed territory would be treated.

Any country or region not listed is unsupported

The policy states the converse of its availability rule: any country or region not listed is unsupported, and it says "This includes" before three situations. Those situations concern persons physically located in an unsupported region, entities incorporated or headquartered there, and entities majority-owned or controlled from there; each is explained in its own card. "Unsupported" describes where the offering is available under this policy. The policy does not describe detection, enforcement or consequences beyond that.

Supporting quotations

Any country or region not listed is unsupported.

Qualifications & exceptions

• The three situations after the "This includes" sentence are included situations, not a stated closed definition of the rule.

Not stated here

• The policy does not state consequences for attempted use from an unsupported region beyond calling it unsupported.
• It does not say whether the list is assessed at the time of use or at another time.

Cross-references

• refers to (model-proposed): The policy lists the countries and regions where access is currently offered — The unlisted-region rule turns on whether a country or region appears on the list. The list card records the operative entries, so the rule's negative test depends on that list.
• qualified by (model-proposed): Use while physically located in an unsupported region is unsupported — This card states one situation the unlisted-region rule includes: use by persons physically located in an unsupported region. It applies the rule’s unsupported status to a location-based case and does not create a different status.
• qualified by (model-proposed): Entities incorporated or headquartered in unsupported regions are unsupported users — This card states one situation the unlisted-region rule includes: use by entities incorporated or headquartered in an unsupported region, regardless of where their users or personnel are located. It applies the rule to an entity-based case.
• qualified by (model-proposed): Entities majority-owned or controlled from unsupported regions are unsupported users — This card states one situation the unlisted-region rule includes: use by entities majority-owned or controlled from unsupported regions, regardless of where their users or personnel are located. It applies the rule to an ownership- or control-based case.

Legal Rights & Agreement Rules · Restriction or exception

Use while physically located in an unsupported region is unsupported

Among the situations the policy treats as unsupported is use by persons while they are physically located in an unsupported region. It expressly includes users and personnel of otherwise supported entities. The stated condition is physical location at the time of use; an entity's supported status does not by itself make that use supported. The policy does not define how a person's location is determined.

Supporting quotations

Use by persons while physically located in an unsupported region, including users and personnel of otherwise supported entities.

Qualifications & exceptions

• The rule turns on physical location in an unsupported region, even for users or personnel of an otherwise supported entity.

Not stated here

• The policy does not define how a person's physical location is determined or at what moment.

Legal Rights & Agreement Rules · Restriction or exception

Entities incorporated or headquartered in unsupported regions are unsupported users

The policy also treats as unsupported use by entities incorporated or headquartered in an unsupported region, together with their users or personnel, regardless of whether those individuals are physically located in a supported region. For this rule the entity's place of incorporation or headquarters controls, not the individual's location. The policy does not define "incorporated" or "headquartered" or state how either is verified.

Supporting quotations

Use by entities incorporated or headquartered in an unsupported region and their users or personnel, regardless of whether such individuals are physically located in a supported region.

Qualifications & exceptions

• The entity's incorporation or headquarters in an unsupported region controls, regardless of the individuals' physical location.

Not stated here

• The policy does not define "incorporated" or "headquartered" or how either is verified.

Entities majority-owned or controlled from unsupported regions are unsupported users

The policy treats as unsupported use by entities that are majority-owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by persons or entities in unsupported regions, including use by their users or personnel, regardless of the individuals' physical location. Two stated elements are majority ownership or control and a direct or indirect link to persons or entities in unsupported regions. The policy does not define "majority-owned" or "controlled" or state how ownership or control is assessed.

Supporting quotations

Use by entities that are majority-owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by persons or entities in unsupported regions, including use by their users or personnel, regardless of whether such individuals are physically located in a supported region.

Qualifications & exceptions

• Both majority ownership or control and a direct or indirect link to unsupported regions are stated; physical location of users or personnel does not cure the restriction.

Not stated here

• The policy does not define "majority-owned" or "controlled" or how ownership or control is assessed.

The policy lists the countries and regions where access is currently offered

Under this heading the policy gives the countries and regions where it currently offers access to its products and services, in an alphabetical list that begins with Albania and ends with Zimbabwe. Read with the availability rule, the entries are the operative location list: a listed country is supported, and a country or region not listed is unsupported, subject to the separate rule for territories and dependencies. "Currently" ties the list to the time of the text; the policy does not commit that the list is permanent and does not describe an update process.

Supporting quotations

Countries and regions where we currently offer access to our products and services:

Albania

Lithuania

United States of America

Zimbabwe

Qualifications & exceptions

• The list is described as current at the time of the text and is alphabetical; the stored copy reproduces its entries.
• A listed country's territories and dependencies are supported under the separate territory rule.

Not stated here

• The stored copy states no effective date or version label; its date is known only from the capture record (2026-10-14).
• The policy does not state how often or by what process the list is updated.
• The list's completeness for a particular territory depends on the separate territories and dependencies rule.

Cross-references

• referred to by (model-proposed): Products are available only in the listed countries and regions — The availability rule limits access to 'the countries and regions listed below'; the list card records that list.
