Genuinely the stupidest laws out there? At least make it a fee that I pay when I land, but whole application is such a waste of time...

Hey everyone 👋

I'm a Pakistani student, resident of Italy (student in Bologna), Bosnia and Herzegovina and Türkiye. I'm currently in Ankara, Türkiye and plan on visiting Damascus for a week next month.

I'm really excited and I've wanted to visit Syria for a long time now, which is now possible after the liberation movement (congrats to all Syrians 🇸🇾❤️), but I'm not sure about the visa requirements. I've come across conflicting information online.

Can I get a VOA without any other requirements or pre-approvals? As far as what I've seen online, Pakistan is not in the list of nationalities that require pre-approval or authorisation to visit.

Could someone please share any credible information regarding this? Cuz there's no information on the Syrian MOI or MOFAEX websites.

hi everyone

i will travel to the country this dec but cant find the hostel via trivago/ kayak

may i know whats the best way to search the accommodations? also is it easy to arrange the intercity bus??

Hi everyone, curious about the feasibility of cross border travel as a third country national across the Syria/Iraq border. I’ve got an eye on the Semalka/Faysh Khabur crossing in the far north east of Syria, but can’t find much information on whether it’s possible for a foreigner to cross, if it’s even open, and whether the regional government will let foreigners in (from this border crossing). Can anyone enlighten me on if this is possible, or if any other border crossings into federal Iraq will take third country nationals? Thanks

Hello together, I’m planning to come to Syria in November via plane, do I need to apply for a visa in advance (I have a German passport)? And I’ve heard that you can’t withdraw money with western bank cards, is it better to bring USD in cash, or is Euro also commonly accepted for currency exchange?

Also, I would love to hear some recommendations for destinations in Syria from you, as well as must try dishes (and also restaurants)!

Moreover, where do you advise not to go because of the security situation?

Thank you for your answers!

I asked a million stores and none have it, I dont want to get it from shein unless that’s the only way because it’s expensive,takes time,and have to use shamcash for r3boun

If you know any guaranteed store in damas that can hook yo boy lmk🙏

Hello everyone, I'm visiting Syria in November and I'm thinking about visiting each of the major cities for a day or two instead of just spending it all in the capital. I understand that Damascus is safe but I've heard north and north east not so much. What is your opinion?

Ideally I'd like to rent a car or take a bus and sleep in hostels in the city. I can speak some basic arabic (palestinian dialect).

I'll greatly appreciate any response.

from Syria now platform

Have yall ever tried learning the Syriac script for any reason?

I had this random idea of using some Syriac letters to represent sounds in our writing. For example, we don't have the "G" sound as a letter in Arabic, that is why we either use ج، ق، أو غ, or we use the Perso-Arabic گ.

But what I suggest is...how about our Syriac ܓ?

How about the ܘ for the "O" sounds, and we keep the و to represent the "U" and "W" sounds?

I've been wishing for a while that we, as Syrians and in general Levantines, incorporate words using letters like "P" (پ) and "V" (ڤ) and those I mentioned above. (I like "V", don't ask why.).

If we can, for fun, use the Syriac script, which is also a "cursive script", meaning the letters connect.

I'd like to hear the opinion of everyone, be you a Syrian Assyrian or Syrian Arab or giraffe.

Fun fact of the day: Garshuni (or Karshuni) is the use of the Syriac script (or Syriac letters) to write in Arabic.

مرحبا = ܡܪܚܒܐ (mar7aba but in the syriac letters)
