Changing tags used for billing mid-month

Question

Hi,

We use a specific tag to identify for our EC2 instances which identifies which customer/project is using a given instance for a given month. This tag is then grouped at the end of the month for billing.

The question: If we change the tag of an instance mid-month, would the billing show (for example) 2 weeks on one tag and 2 weeks on the second tag? Or would the charges switch to show up under the second tag for the entire month?

I hope this example makes sense.

Thanks,
Tim

Accepted Answer

Tag changes will be reflected in your billing from the point in time when new tag value was applied.
In your case it would first 2 week with old tag and last 2 weeks with the new one. Billing records are created in near real time, not only at the end of month.
