FAQ
YouTube region restriction checker FAQ
How does this checker work?+
Paste a public YouTube URL or video ID. The tool checks the public page response for playability status and any country availability data YouTube exposes.
How do I check if a YouTube video is blocked in a country?+
Paste the YouTube URL or video ID into the checker. If YouTube exposes country availability or playability data, the tool shows whether the video appears blocked, unavailable, private, removed, or playable.
Does this work with Shorts?+
Yes. Shorts URLs are supported and normalized into a standard video lookup.
Why might a video be blocked without region restrictions?+
A video can be unavailable because it was removed, made private, age-gated, or requires login. The tool shows the playability reason when YouTube exposes it.
