Hi Rafi,

yes, there are currently no requirements on the age of your account to create a t3.small EC2 instance.

However, the instance will not be covered by the free tier. Currently you can get 750 hours per month of either t2.micro or t3.micro instances depending on your specific region.

As part of the AWS Free Tier, you can get started with EC2 for free. This includes 750 hours of Linux and Windows t2.micro instances (t3.micro for the regions in which t2.micro is unavailable), each month for one year. To stay within the Free Tier, use only EC2 Micro instances.

Please refer to https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/?loc=ft#Free_tier for more details

  • Pedantic I know, but there is no restriction on creating t3.small instances in an account that is younger than 12 months (and thus within scope of free tier), which is actually the question being asked. It's just that the t3.small instances will never be in scope of free tier, and will always be chargeable.

  • Hi Steve_M, you are right. Thanks for insisting on the highest standards. I've updated the answer accordingly
