AWS IAM Identity Center extends multi-Region support to more AWS Regions

Regional Expansion

AWS IAM Identity Center extends multi-Region support to opt-in AWS Regions, including AWS GovCloud (US) and AWS China Regions, improving user access resilience.

  • Automatically replicates identities, entitlements, and information from primary Region to additional Regions
  • Users maintain access to AWS accounts during primary Region disruptions using provisioned entitlements
  • Supports organization instances with external identity providers or IAM Identity Center directory
  • Requires multi-Region customer managed KMS key; new instances can enable with single click
  • Standard AWS KMS charges apply; IAM Identity Center provided at no additional cost

Multi-Region support enables organizations to deploy applications across Regions while maintaining centralized IAM Identity Center administration.
