The setting is under:
In the Microsoft 365 admin center, go to Settings > Security & privacy.
In Sharing, select Edit.
Set Let users add new guests to this organization to On, and then click Save.
This I believe should allow it so users cannot add new guests. This way you can control guests that get added, but they can still add existing ones to their Teams.

Add the guest via the Teams client! Type the full address in the add member section in any Team and an invitation will be sent out!

thanks for the reply but we don't want that the user add Guests to the TEAMS. We want to do this from IT side because we want an overview and Lifecycle about the Guest Accounts. That's why we add the User in Azure to the Teams O365 Group. But the replication when the Guest is available in the Teams takes a long time.

thanks for the info. This works for us.
- Dec 13, 2019Ah sorry! AFAIK no unfortunately! It takes time to propagate! I’m not sure if there’s less time doing this programmatically though! Microsoft has said to improve the propagation times between different services
