Azure migration from Old Company that filed Bankruptcy
- Nov 12, 2025
I have confirmed with an internal source:
They need to open a billing case with support to talk through their situation. Too much specific nuance to answer this in a board.
My original suggestion is best, submit a support ticket here.
With balance, you mean the open invoices send from Microsoft to the bankrupt company?
I can only imagine that when you transfer the Azure subscription/resources from one tenant to the other, as of transfer data and that moment all new invoices will be send to the new company. All previous send invoices are still legally attached to the bankrupt company.
Microsoft can't just re-send previous send invoices to a new company for costs made under a different company for consumption made in the past.
But as the new company did purchase the bankrupt company, they're probably still responsible for the due invoices regardless of where the Azure subscription is situated and where the invoices were send to. So it probably doesn't matter even if they move to AWS or other cloud providers. New company is still somewhat obliged to pay due invoices of the bankrupt company they bought (but don't pin me on this, ain't no legal advisor :P)
