Hello, this is a question many people are concerned about. Simply put, whether Starlink is available depends entirely on whether its service has been approved in your country/region. It's not like a mobile phone signal that works as long as there's a base station; instead, it requires approval from each country's government.

To find out if it's truly available where you are, the most reliable method is to check the official website. This is more accurate than any news reports or rumors.

How to Check if Starlink is Available in Your Area?

Starlink provides a global coverage map that is very intuitive and can be checked in just a few steps:

  1. Visit the Official Website: Open your browser and go directly to the official Starlink website: https://www.starlink.com/map

  2. View the Map: Once opened, you will see a world map. This map uses different colors to indicate the status of various regions:

    • Dark Blue Areas (Available): Congratulations! These areas indicate that service has been officially launched, and you can immediately order equipment and start using it.
    • Light Blue Areas (Waitlist): These areas indicate that service is coming soon or capacity is being expanded. You can pay a small deposit to "get in line," and when it's your turn, Starlink will notify you via email to pay the full amount for shipment.
    • Grey Areas (Coming Soon): These areas mean that Starlink plans to offer service there, but there is no clear timeline yet, and even joining a waitlist is not possible. You can leave your email, and Starlink will notify you when there are updates.

So, you just need to find your location on the map, see what color it is, and you'll have your answer.
