To delete the permission set, you must first remove it from the AWS account that it's provisioned for.

1.  Open the [IAM Identity Center console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/singlesignon/), and then in the navigation pane choose **AWS accounts**.
2.  In **AWS Accounts**, choose the **AWS organization** tab.
3.  Choose the AWS account that is associated with the permission set that you want to delete.
4.  Expand **Permission sets**, and then choose the permission set that you want to remove.
5.  In the **Remove permission set** dialog box, choose **Remove access**.
6.  If you have multiple AWS accounts associated with the permission set, repeat steps 3-5.
7.  Choose **AWS Accounts** in the navigation pane.
8.  Choose the **Permissions sets** tab, choose the permission set, and then choose **Delete**.

The permission set is now deleted. For more information, see [Delete permission sets](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/singlesignon/latest/userguide/howtoremovepermissionset.html).
