Status checked 2023/11/22:
If you’re a fan of heartwarming, Christmas-themed animated films, you might enjoy ‘Klaus’, which is widely available on a major streaming service. If you’re traveling to a country where this streaming service isn’t available, however, this guide explains how and where to watch ‘Klaus’ with a VPN.
A VPN helps you bypass georestrictions, which are used to block access to streaming services outside certain countries for copyright or censorship reasons, by encrypting your data and changing your IP address.
If this information is new to you, keep scrolling to learn how to use a VPN to access streaming services from locations where they’re unavailable. To cut a long story short, we recommend ExpressVPN, our top pick for the overall best VPN, but we’ll cover other options, too.
How to Watch Klaus: Which Streaming Services Have Klaus?
‘Klaus’ was distributed by one streaming service only, so you’ll only find it on this service (revealed below). It’s not available elsewhere for copyright reasons. Let’s explore this further.
Is Klaus on Netflix?
Yes, ‘Klaus’ is available globally on Netflix. When we say “globally”, we mean “with the exception of countries in which Netflix is unavailable”. Unfortunately, Netflix is unavailable in China, Russia, Syria, Crimea and North Korea. Therefore, if you were to travel to one of these countries, you wouldn’t be able to access Netflix.
You can, however, use a VPN to bypass this restriction and access your Netflix account from some restrictive locations, like China, and we’ll show you how further down.
Just bear in mind that, while VPNs are perfectly legal in most countries, including the U.S., there are exceptions. North Korea is one of the countries in which VPNs are illegal, and their use is restricted in China and Russia, in addition to a few other locations. Potential consequences vary, but travelers to heavily oppressive countries should always exercise caution.
How to Unblock Netflix U.S. & Other Libraries
In addition to accessing Netflix from countries where it’s unavailable, you can use a VPN to change your Netflix library to one in another country. This will allow you to explore a different variety of content that might not be available in the country you’re in.
Netflix libraries change depending on your location, so a movie available in the U.K., for example, may not be available in the U.S. This doesn’t usually apply to Netflix films, like ‘Klaus’, but movies and shows not written for Netflix are often affected. This happens because Netflix doesn’t always have the rights to stream certain content in every country.
Great news: You can connect to a VPN server in a different country to access that country’s Netflix library. Let’s say you’re in Canada, but want to see what’s on offer on Netflix in the U.S. (one of the largest Netflix libraries). Simply connect to a U.S. server and open Netflix to start exploring.
How to Watch Klaus Free Online With a VPN
If you’re in a country where Netflix is unavailable, like Russia or China, you can use a secure VPN that offers obfuscation to get into your Netflix account and stream ‘Klaus’. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to download and use our number one recommendation, ExpressVPN, but you can check below for more VPN options.
You’ll need a Netflix subscription for this to work. A VPN lets you bypass geoblocks, but not the requirement to pay for a subscription.
- Sign Up for a VPN
Choose a reputable VPN provider and visit the provider’s website to sign up for a plan. Many VPN subscriptions, including ExpressVPN, come with 30-day money-back guarantees.
- Download Your VPN
When you’ve signed up for a plan, you can download the VPN to your device. Click the “download” tab to start the process or search for the app in the App store or on Google Play.
- Connect to a Server
Connect to a server in any country where Netflix is available, like the U.S.
- Launch Netflix
Open Netflix, search for ‘Klaus’ and start streaming. If you encounter any problems, try connecting to another server.

The Best VPNs to Stream Klaus
If your goal is to access Netflix from restrictive regions, we recommend choosing a VPN with obfuscation technology, like one of the providers below. This is an extra security feature that masks your VPN use, making it easier to bypass especially tough regional restrictions.
1. ExpressVPN
obfuscates your traffic automatically.
Pros:
- Built-in obfuscation
- Diverse server selection
- Highly consistent
Cons:
- Expensive
ExpressVPN is a provider that never fails to deliver, which is why it’s our top recommendation for most purposes, streaming included. It’s ideal for restrictive locations because it applies obfuscation by default when you’re connected to the automatic protocol (click on the top left menu — options — protocol, if you want to check). Its ease of use also makes it suitable for beginners.
All the same, ExpressVPN remains one of the most expensive services of our top picks, and you can only choose from three plans, though there is a 30-day money-back guarantee. To save money, we recommend going for the annual plan instead of the monthly or six-month plan. To find out more, have a look at our ExpressVPN review.
- Unlimited GB
- 8
- Yes
2. NordVPN
including the U.S., U.K., Hong Kong, Turkey and more.
Pros:
- Obfuscated servers available
- Inexpensive long-term plans
- Excellent streaming speeds
Cons:
- No obfuscation by default
ExpressVPN may be our number one recommendation, but NordVPN only misses out on the top spot by an inch. NordVPN boasts the best speeds on average, as evidenced by our daily speed tests, and it offers a broader range of plans. Better yet, its long-term plans’ prices go easy on the wallet, some costing only a few dollars apiece.
NordVPN also offers obfuscation, though, in contrast to ExpressVPN, you need to manually enable obfuscation by going to “protocols” and selecting OpenVPN on some devices (this is automatically selected on Windows). You then need to go to the list of obfuscated servers to choose one, or alternatively opt for “fastest server”. Learn more in our NordVPN review.
- Unlimited GB
- 6
- Yes
3. Proton VPN
Pros:
- Has Stealth protocol
- Unlimited free data
- Easy to use
Cons:
- Stealth is unavailable on Windows & Linux
Proton VPN takes the top spot in our best free VPNs roundup, in part thanks to its secure free plan with unlimited data. Its free plan gives you access to servers in three countries: the U.S., the Netherlands and Japan. You can apply the Stealth protocol, which obfuscates your traffic, even to the free servers.
That said, Stealth is only available on iOS, macOS and Android, so you’re out of luck if you want to obfuscate your traffic on a Windows or Linux device. In addition, if you want access to servers in more locations, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan. Check out our Proton VPN review to find out more.

Klaus Cast, Characters & Plot (No Spoilers)
Lazy postman Jesper has been sent to an island town in the Arctic Circle — a town where the locals are involved in a bitter feud — to work as punishment for his lack of effort at a postman training school. There, he meets Klaus, an isolated toymaker, and the two join forces to bring back the Christmas spirit. The voice cast includes:
| Character: | Voice Cast |
|---|---|
| Jesper | Jason Schwartzman |
| Klaus (Santa Klaus) | J.K. Simmons |
| Alva | Rashida Jones |
| Mr. Ellingboe | Will Sasso |
| Olaf Krum & Pumpkin Ellingboe | Sergio Pablos |
| Mogens | Norm MacDonald |
Will There Be a Klaus 2?
Sergio Pablos, the director of ‘Klaus’, told Digital Spy in 2019 that there will not be a sequel to the movie because the intention of the first film was to provide the audience with a “version of Santa”, and then let the audience experience Santa in their own way. Pablos goes on to explain that he would “much rather focus on finding the next great story.”
Final Thoughts
With the holiday season approaching, now is the time to start drafting your Christmas watchlists. If you plan for ‘Klaus’ to be on that list, but you’re in a location where Netflix is unavailable, we hope our guide has brought you a bit of Christmas cheer.
Are you in a location where Netflix or other streaming services you like are blocked? Do you — or will you — use a VPN to get around geoblocks and censorship? If so, we’d love to hear about your experience in the comments. Thanks for reading.
