What is Amnezia VPN?

Amnezia VPN is a VPN client and service family built for people in countries with heavy internet censorship. One app connects to Amnezia Premium (a paid classic VPN), Amnezia Free (a limited free service for blocked sites), or a self-hosted VPN you deploy on your own server.

Its main protocol, AmneziaWG, builds on WireGuard and adds obfuscation against DPI detection and blocking. For self-hosted setups the open-source client supports OpenVPN, OpenVPN over Cloak, WireGuard, AmneziaWG, IKEv2, XRay Reality and ShadowSocks, with split tunneling and a kill switch. The company says it passed security audits by 7ASecurity in 2022, 2024 and 2025.

It suits users facing blocking who want something that works out of the box, technically inclined users who want to run a private VPN on a VPS, and companies that want a managed VPN for employees through Amnezia Business.

  • AmneziaWG protocol with DPI obfuscation, based on WireGuard

  • Eight protocols incl. OpenVPN over Cloak, IKEv2, ShadowSocks
