YouTube Region Restriction Checker

About This Tool

So, you’ve found a YouTube video that looks awesome—maybe a live concert, a tutorial, or some random cat doing parkour—but when you click play, you get hit with that annoying “This content is not available in your country” message. Yeah, we’ve all been there. Frustrating, right? That’s where a YouTube Region Restriction Checker comes in. It’s not magic, but it’s close. This little tool lets you peek behind the curtain and see which countries can actually watch a video. No more guessing, no more rage-quitting YouTube in disappointment.

I built this thing after wasting way too much time trying to figure out if a video was blocked just for me or if it was a global thing. Spoiler: it was usually blocked. Now, instead of refreshing over and over like a madman, I just paste the URL and get a quick list of regions where the video’s actually playable. Simple. Effective. Honestly, kind of satisfying.

Key Features

Supports any public YouTube URL—just paste and go
Shows exactly which regions can view the content (and which can’t)
No sign-up, no tracking, no nonsense—just a clean, fast result
Works on desktop and mobile, because let’s be real, we’re all glued to our phones
Free to use. Always. Because why charge for something that should be basic?

FAQ

Q: Does this tool let me watch blocked videos?
A: Nope. Sorry to burst your bubble. This checker only tells you where a video is available—it doesn’t bypass restrictions or unlock content. Think of it like a weather app for YouTube: it tells you if it’s sunny in France, but it won’t ship you there.

Q: Why do some videos show up as available everywhere?
A: Usually because the uploader didn’t set any regional limits. Some creators want maximum reach, so they leave their videos open globally. Others restrict them for licensing, copyright, or just because they’re weird like that. The checker just reports what YouTube’s telling it—no hidden agendas.
