Why We Don’t “Move” an Existing VPS

Every EDBB VPS is tied to the hardware, storage, and IP resources of a specific data center. Because of this, an existing VPS cannot simply be transferred to another location. Instead, changing locations requires provisioning a new VPS in the destination region.

​
Free location change within 24 hours

Ordered your VPS in the wrong location? We may be able to help. If your VPS was ordered within the last 24 hours, you can request one free location change. This option is useful if you:
  • Selected the wrong location during checkout.
  • Need lower latency from another region.
  • Require your VPS to be deployed in a different geographic location.
When your request is approved:
  • A new VPS is provisioned in the requested location.
  • Your current plan and billing cycle remain unchanged.
  • The original VPS is permanently removed after the relocation.
  • No refund is issued as part of the relocation process.

​
Eligibility Requirements

A free location change is available only if all of the following conditions are met:
  • The request is submitted within 24 hours of the original order.
  • Only one free location change is permitted per VPS.
  • Resources are available in the requested location.
  • Additional IPv4 addresses are not automatically transferred and may require re-approval.
  • The VPS has not been suspended or flagged for abuse, spam, fraud, or policy violations.
A location change provisions a new VPS in the requested location. Your data, IP addresses, installed software, and configuration are not transferred automatically. Please create a full backup before requesting a relocation.

​
After 24 Hours

Once the initial 24-hour period has passed, VPS locations can no longer be changed. If you need your VPS in another location:
1

Deploy a new VPS

Order a VPS in your preferred location from the EDBB Control Panel.
2

Migrate your data

Transfer your files, databases, and application configuration to the new VPS using your preferred migration method.
3

Cancel the previous VPS

Once everything has been verified, cancel the old VPS to stop further billing. Remember to update any DNS records or services that reference the previous IP address.
