This differs from the model most other Azure services follow which couple availability with data residency. You can see examples of this in both Azure's [Products Available By Region](https://azure.microsoft.com/regions/services/) page and the [Active Directory B2C pricing calculator](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/active-directory-b2c/).

## Preview tenant

-
If you had created a B2C tenant during Azure AD B2C's preview period, it is likely that your **Tenant type** says **Preview tenant**. If this is the case, you MUST use your tenant only for development and testing purposes, and NOT for production apps.

> There is no migration path from a preview B2C tenant to a production-scale B2C tenant. Note that there are known issues when you delete a preview B2C tenant and re-create a production-scale B2C tenant with the same domain name. You have to create a production-scale B2C tenant with a different domain name.
