There may be a few reasons why you may be getting charged for VPC even if you are not using it. Here is a glimpse of them.

AWS started charging for public IPv4 addresses from February 2022. Even if you are not explicitly using public IPs from VPC, background services like EC2 metadata service could be using a public IP address behind the scenes.

Check if you have any network interfaces or elastic network interfaces provisioned in your account. These will be associated with a VPC and incur charges.

Review your security groups and NAT gateways associated with VPC. Even if resources using them are in the free tier, the networking components themselves will attract charges.

Check your billing reports for the services tagged under VPC like Route Tables , Internet Gateways etc. Even if these resources are inactive, you may be charged for maintaining them.
