t.me is down.
Your link isn’t.
Swap t.me for tme.bio in any Telegram link — and it just opens. Channels, chats, bots and posts. No VPN, no extra apps, no setup.
Last updated: July 14, 2026
how it works
Same path. Different domain.
Every Telegram link has the same structure: domain + name. When t.me is blocked, the same path opens through another domain. tme.bio makes that swap for you — with an instant redirect to telegram.dog, Telegram’s official alternative domain.
Take the broken link
Any link like t.me/durov — a channel, post, bot or chat invite.
Replace the domain with tme.bio
You get tme.bio/durov. Everything after “/” stays exactly the same.
Open it — done
We instantly redirect you to telegram.dog — Telegram’s own backup domain.

Frequently asked questions
Why doesn't the t.me link open?
t.me — Telegram's official link-shortener domain — can be blocked by internet providers or temporarily unavailable. Telegram itself usually keeps working: it's the short-link domain that is unreachable, not the messenger. The same links keep opening through alternative domains such as telegram.dog.
How do I open a t.me link without a VPN?
Replace t.me with tme.bio in the address: for example, t.me/durov → tme.bio/durov. The link opens automatically via telegram.dog. No VPN or proxy required.
What is telegram.dog?
telegram.dog is an alternative short-link domain owned by Telegram. It works exactly like t.me and usually stays reachable when the main domain is blocked.
Is this an official Telegram service?
No. tme.bio is an independent redirect service and is not affiliated with Telegram Messenger Inc. We simply forward your request to the official telegram.dog domain. See the terms of use.
Which links are supported?
All t.me paths: channels, groups, posts, bots (including start parameters), invite links (+ and joinchat), stickers, custom emoji, themes, chat folders (addlist), share links and proxies. The path and query parameters are passed through unchanged.
Can I share tme.bio links?
Yes. A link like tme.bio/username opens for any recipient — in a browser, messenger or social network — and takes them to the right channel, chat or bot.
Do you collect data about redirects?
The service requires no registration and collects no personal data. The redirect is instant; only standard hosting logs remain on the server.
The link still won't open. What now?
Make sure the Telegram app is installed. Try the web version at web.telegram.org or search for the @username inside the app. If telegram.dog is blocked too, a VPN or Telegram’s built-in proxies will help.
