Extended Support charges
You will incur charges for all clusters running on Extended Support beginning the day after the Amazon DocumentDB version 3.6 end of standard support date. For the Amazon DocumentDB version 3.6 end of standard support date, see Amazon DocumentDB engine version support dates.
The additional charge for Amazon DocumentDB Extended Support stops when you take one of the following actions:
Upgrade to an engine version that's covered under standard support
Delete the cluster that's running version 3.6 past the end of standard support date
For example, Amazon DocumentDB version 3.6 enters Extended Support on March 30, 2026, but charges do not start until March 31, 2026.
If you upgrade your Amazon DocumentDB version 3.6 cluster to Amazon DocumentDB version 5.0 on April 29, 2026, you will only be charged for 30 days of Extended Support on Amazon DocumentDB version 3.6.
