Windows 365-supported regions

Windows 365 takes advantage of the data center capacity that Microsoft has established all over the world. You can deploy Windows 365 Cloud PCs in many regions, with many more to come. Depending on which Windows 365 edition you deploy, there are different circumstances that determine which region you will be able to deploy your Cloud PCs in. The available Windows 365 editions are listed below with their supported regions.

Windows 365 for Business supported regions

The location of where the Cloud PC is provisioned is associated with the billing address for your organization. If there isn’t any available capacity in this location, the Cloud PC will be provisioned in the closest available region instead. To check what data location has been detected for your organization, log in as an administrator at https://admin.microsoft.com and go to Org settings in the menu panel on the left. From here, choose Organization profile; this will display some new options to choose from. Select Data location. You will now be able to see the detected location based on your organization’s address. See the screenshots below for reference:

Unlike the Business edition, you’ll have more available options to choose from in the Enterprise edition.
