Enterprise Products without Teams
Hi MBenton
Check the latest partner FAQ.

It may be that at the time you would need to raise a support request depending on the scenario.
If both organisations are merging into a single tenant, then if the tenant already has 'with Teams' licenses regardless of Business or Enterprise, then they should be able to buy new subscriptions/licenses with Teams.
Where a completely new tenant is being created and you are licensing it from nothing, then that's a different challenge. This is likely where you would need a support request, with evidence of the merger, the fact they already have with Teams licenses etc. And you are of course dependent on the current whim of Microsoft support.
MBenton Hi there, there is a substantial FAQ document with many exceptions. If customer has existing subscriptions this count-but do check out out details for yourself! 2024 – "We will update this FAQ to incorporate additional scenarios and feedback.
Hi Susan2022
Thank you for replying to assist, it's greatly appreciated
However, since Microsoft has noted that the document that you've linked should not be distributed, I will need to remove this file.
- I have to question why Microsoft has Partner communities and then allows non-partners to access the posts and content?
The previous iteration, Microsoft Partner Community, I believe was limited to partners. IMO it was also a better platform than this tech community too.- That's a valid question that I do not have the answer to. Maybe jill Armour can clarify.
This is has been an interesting thread, but I am ultimately looking for an official response to the following question. If a customer with existing Enterprise products, such as M365 E3 or E5, migrates to a brand-new tenant as part of a merger with another organization, who is also migrating to the same new tenant, can they maintain the rights to the legacy enterprise bundles with Teams? Fine if we need to open a support ticket, I just need to inform our sales team how to properly quote the licensing for this migration.
Thanks,
Mark Benton
