Update: Egress and data transfer with Azure in the United Kingdom

We support customer choice, including the choice to transfer your data between Azure and environments outside of Azure. 

Azure has offered free egress and at-cost data transfer for customers and CSP partners in Europe transferring data via the internet between Azure to another data processing service provider. This situation is common where multiple services of different providers are used in parallel, in an interoperable manner.  

We have made some changes for customers with billing address in the United Kingdom (UK) transferring data from UK datacenters, including the scoped networks, transfer window, and scoped services. 

If your application is built to transfer data cross-cloud, or you are leaving any number of single Azure services, please follow the steps for egress or in-parallel data transfer to contact Azure Support to claim a credit. Please be aware of the eligibility requirements for this credit.
