Deleting a VPC Peering Connection

You can delete a VPC peering connection to disable communication between two peered Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs).

Permission to delete the connection depends on the state of the connection:

  • If the connection is in the active state, it can be deleted either by the owner of the requester VPC or the owner of the peer VPC.

  • If it is in the pending-acceptance state, it can be deleted only by the owner of the requester VPC.

  • It if is in the rejected, failed, or expired states, it cannot be deleted.

For more information, see About VPC Peering Connections > Lifecycle.
