    Creating a virtual machine (VM) using a pay-as-you-go plan that offers a free tier for the first year is a common practice among cloud service providers.

    Kindly go through the following Microsoft references:

    Pay as you go with Azure—plus get free services

    Create services included with Azure free account

    Hello, @Sensen He ! @S.Sengupta has provided some excellent links, and I'd like to expand on explicitly what that means for those looking to create free VMs within the first 12 months of creating their Azure account.

    How do I create free VMs within the first 12 months of creating my Azure account?

    Check the full list of free products for current offerings (some are always free, some are free for 12 months for new customers). At the time of this answer, B1s are the current free products available for Virtual Machines:

    You can confirm this during your VM deployment by looking for the free services eligible text next to the VM size:
