 For Azure VM disaster recovery, by default, ExpressRoute is not required for replication. After virtual machines fail over to the target Azure region, you can access them using [private peering](../expressroute/expressroute-circuit-peerings.md#privatepeering). Note that data transfer prices apply irrespective of the mode of data replication across Azure regions.
 
-If you are already using ExpressRoute to connect from your on-premises datacenter to the Azure VMs on the source region, you can plan for re-establishing ExpressRoute connectivity at the failover target region. You can use the same ExpressRoute circuit to connect to the target region through a new virtual network connection or utilize a separate ExpressRoute circuit and connection for disaster recovery. The different possible scenarios are described [here](azure-vm-disaster-recovery-with-expressroute.md#fail-over-azure-vms-when-using-expressroute).

 You can replicate Azure virtual machines to any Azure region within the same geographic cluster as detailed [here](../site-recovery/azure-to-azure-support-matrix.md#region-support). If the chosen target Azure region is not within the same geopolitical region as the source, you might need to enable ExpressRoute Premium.
