When you create an Amazon Web Services account, you can try some Amazon services free of charge within certain usage limits.

Amazon Web Services China Region Free Tier provides three types of offers:

Always free

These free tier offers don't expire and are available to all Amazon customers.

12 months free

You can use these offers for 12 months following your initial sign up date to Amazon.

Short-term trials

You can use a free tier limit each month for less than 12 months. Most short-term free trial offers start from the date that you activate a particular service.

Your Amazon usage stays within the Amazon Web Services China Region Free Tier limits when all of these conditions are met:

  • You're within the active trial period for the Amazon Web Services China Region Free Tier offering. For example, within 12 months for a 12-month free type of service like Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2).

  • You use only Amazon Web Services services that offer Amazon Web Services China Region Free Tier benefits.

  • Your usage stays within the Amazon Web Services China Region Free Tier limits of those services.

If you use Amazon Web Services services beyond one or more of these conditions, then you're charged at the standard Amazon billing rates for usage that exceeds the Free Tier limits.
