Important

Teams currently offers data residency in Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Norway, Poland, Qatar, South Korea, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland (which includes Liechtenstein), the United Arab Emirates, and United Kingdom for new tenants only. A new tenant is defined as any tenant that hasn’t had a single user from the tenant sign in to Teams or its admin user has never signed in to the Teams admin center. Existing tenants from Australia, India, Japan, and South Korea will continue to have their Teams data stored in the APAC region. Existing tenants in Brazil and Canada will continue to have their data stored in the Americas. Existing tenants in France, Germany, Liechtenstein, Norway, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Switzerland will have their data stored in the EMEA region.

Data stored with a third-party storage provider

Organizations who allow users to store files with a third-party storage provider are dependent on the storage location of those services and should, therefore, review the location of data at rest for those services separately.
