Anthropic's New Whitelist Takes Effect on November 12, Disabling Claude for Businesses in Unsupported Regions

Anthropic's "Supported Regions Policy" will take effect on November 12, changing the product availability to a whitelist system. Claude.ai, Claude Code, Cowork, API, and Claude models provided through cloud platforms and authorized distributors will only be available in 185 countries and regions, with all others being unsupported. The policy stipulates that three prohibitive measures are stricter than the whitelist itself: first, using the service while physically located in unsupported regions is a violation, including employees of companies in supported regions traveling for business; second, entities and their personnel registered or headquartered in unsupported regions are in violation, regardless of whether individuals are in supported regions; third, companies that are directly or indirectly majority-owned or controlled by entities from unsupported regions are also in violation for their personnel.
