The only subscription type that you can manually delete is a free trial subscription. All other subscription types, including pay-as-you-go subscriptions, are deleted only through the [subscription cancellation](#cancel-subscription-in-the-azure-portal) process. In other words, you can't delete a subscription directly unless it's a free trial subscription. However, after you cancel a subscription, you can create an [Azure support request](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2083458) to ask to have the subscription deleted immediately.
