Program summary

The Microsoft Entra Permission Management (MEPM) Voucher Program is designed to assist eligible customers with transitioning from the Microsoft Entra Permission Management service, which is being deprecated on October 1, 2025, to any Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements Management (CIEM) solution or Cloud Native Application Platform (CNAP) the customer selects.

This program provides:

  • Services credit via a Voucher to help offset migration costs to a CIEM solution of their choice.
  • Connection to an eligible Microsoft MEPM partner who can provide services and support throughout the migration process.

Program duration

The MEPM Voucher Program runs from June 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.

How it works 

1. Customer selects a MEPM partner
Nominated eligible customers will choose their partner from the list of eligible MEPM Partners (https://aka.ms/MEPMApprovedPartners) and present their approved Voucher, which includes the Voucher value, eligible workload, and expiration date.

2. Define services to be provided
The selected MEPM partner will work directly with the customer to:

  • Define the scope of their migration.
  • Draft a Statement of Work (SOW) that outlines the services to be delivered. Note: Only one SOW can be submitted per Voucher. The work must align to the eligible workload.


3. Submit the SOW and Voucher for redemption
Once the SOW is finalized and signed by both the partner and the customer:


4. Partner submits POE
The MEPM partner will complete the Proof of Execution (POE) once the defined scope has been completed. Migration services must be completed by the Voucher’s expiration date. Microsoft cannot extend its validity beyond this period.
