Abhishek Pal 1 Reputation point2022-10-20T14:11:02.547+00:00 Hi ,
I am also facing the same issue. I am trying to create Azure Active Directory(not the B2C). I have global administrator privilege. And as requested, I have also activated a free trial and now I am the owner of the subscription.
Still facing the same error- 'tenant creation failed. access is denied.'
I am facing this issue from yesterday only and before that I was able to create tenant without any problem.
Please let know if there is any change in process of tenant creation.Regards

David G. Schultz 26 Reputation points2022-10-20T19:14:42.787+00:00 I am also having this issue. Created an AAD tenant this week without any issues. Judging by the lack of resources online detailing the issue, this is a fresh bug.

Please check the roles assigned to your account as it requires Contributor role assigned to your account.
rbac-and-directory-admin-rolesAnd to add to this when you create a new Azure AD tenant, you become the first user of that tenant. As the first user, you're automatically assigned the Global Admin role.
Hope this helps.
