Starting today, Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) is available in two additional AWS Regions: Asia Pacific (Jakarta) and Middle East (UAE).

BYOIP allows you to bring your own IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to AWS and advertise them on the internet. You can create Elastic IP addresses from your BYOIPv4 addresses and use them with AWS resources such as EC2 instances, Network Load Balancers, and NAT gateways. The Elastic IP addresses you create from BYOIPv4 addresses work in the same way as the Elastic IP addresses you get from AWS. The BYOIPv6 addresses also work in the same way as AWS provided IPv6 addresses. For example, you can associate these IPv6 addresses to subnets, Elastic Network Interfaces (ENI), and EC2 instances within your VPC. Additionally, you can use your BYOIPv6 for private connectivity to your on-premises networks by advertising them over Direct Connect.

With this regional expansion, BYOIP is available in the Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong-Kong), Asia Pacific (Jakarta), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Osaka), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Canada (Central), Europe (Dublin), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (London), Europe (Milan), Europe (Paris), Europe (Stockholm), Middle East (Bahrain), Middle East (UAE), South America (Sao Paulo), US West (Northern California), US East (N.
