--- title: Getting delisted from Spamhaus description: This page helps you delist your domain from Spamhaus' Block List tags: delist domain spam spamhaus dates: validation: 2025-10-29 posted: 2023-03-20 --- Spamhaus is a database that analyzes data and lists internet resources such as IP addresses or domains with poor [reputation](/transactional-email/concepts/#ip-reputation). Spamhaus tracks ransomware, malware, phishing, and spam and produces several blocklists that mailbox providers use to protect themselves against malicious activity. Your [deliverability](/transactional-email/concepts/#deliverability) will be affected if you are blocked on Spamhaus. ## How to get a domain removed from the Spamhaus Block List (SBL) Use the [Spamhaus Checker](https://check.spamhaus.org/) to see if your domain is listed. If your domain is listed, you will find out why and what you need to do to make sure it is not listed again. Make sure you are sending emails to people who have agreed to receive them, and to delete hard bounce emails. You can also [contact our Support team](https://console.scaleway.com/support/tickets) to help you address the issue. Once you have identified what the issue is, you can [submit a removal request](https://www.spamhaus.org/faqs/general-questions/). Once your removal request is received, Spamhaus will try and answer any questions you may have before approving the removal. Submitting a removal request does not guarantee that the removal will be granted. Make sure that the problem has been addressed before submitting the request.
