HI, we want to reduce the password expiration policy in Azure AD from 180 to 90 days.

Will this trigger all users to change a password even if they are less than 90 days away from password change?

    The user's password expiration date wont change, no.

    Can I suggest that you set passwords to never expire for users instead and rely on MFA and other strong auth methods instead?
