New stateduplicate three-year Microsoft 365 Nonprofit E3 and E5 SKUs reach end of sale; one correct SKU per product remains and supports a three-year commitment with annual or triennial billing.

Who is affected

CSP direct-bill partners and indirect providers transacting Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 Nonprofit three-year offers.

Action required

Use the remaining SKU labelled three-year for the applicable Microsoft 365 E3 or E5 Nonprofit offer and do not transact the duplicate SKUs that reached end of sale on 1 July 2026.

Evidence boundary

Partner Center establishes the duplicate-SKU end-of-sale mechanics and remaining three-year offer. Microsoft's nonprofit plan documentation independently confirms Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 as Nonprofit products; it does not establish the CSP three-year SKU transition mechanics.
