The Turkish authorities have lifted a ban on Twitter following Wednesday's constitutional court ruling, officials and media reports say.
The court had told the country's telecommunication authorities the two-week-old ban must be lifted as it was a breach of freedom of expression.
It may take a couple of hours for full access to Twitter to be restored.
Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan had vowed to "wipe out Twitter" after users spread allegations of corruption.
Users across the country found many ways of circumventing the prohibition, which was widely criticised and ridiculed.
Access to Twitter was blocked in Turkey in the run-up to local elections, which Mr Erdogan's ruling Islamist-rooted AK Party won resoundingly.
Following the Twitter ban the government also banned access to YouTube, after a video on the website appeared to reveal top officials discussing how to stage an undercover attack inside Syria. Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu is heard asking about the possibility of sending tanks in.
The YouTube recording has not been verified as authentic, and Mr Erdogan alleges that such recordings are being fabricated to turn people against him.
Mr Erdogan has lashed out at social media, accusing "plotters" of leaking recordings to deliberately undermine him. A US-based Islamic cleric, Fethullah Gulen, has denied allegations that he is involved.
