How to verify availability
- Open the official YouTube creator dashboard or app for the account.
- Check whether YouTube Partner Program appears as an available monetization product.
- Compare the account against public requirements, numeric thresholds, payout setup, and policy status.
- Use country-specific pages only as a checklist; dashboard status wins when public docs are incomplete.

FAQ
Is this the official complete YouTube monetization country list?
No. This is a source-linked tracker for the markets modeled on CreatorRules Wiki. The official YouTube source and account dashboard are the final source for current country support.
Why can YouTube monetization differ by country?
Country support, payout provider support, account status, policy standing, and product rollout can all affect whether YouTube Partner Program appears for an account.
What should a creator do if their country is not supported?
Check the official dashboard first, then review the blocked checklist for country support, payout setup, account standing, and policy issues. Do not try to bypass platform location or payout rules.
