Removing a Member Account from Your Organization

Precautions

Before you remove an account, it is important to know the following information:

• The account you want to remove must not be a delegated administrator account of any trusted service for your organization. If the account is a delegated administrator, you must first change it to a non-delegated administrator account in your organization. For more information about how to remove or change a delegated administrator account, see Specifying, Viewing, or Removing a Delegated Administrator.
• After a member account leaves an organization, the account no longer has access to the data from the time range when the account was a member of the organization. However, the management account of the organization can still access that data. If the account rejoins the organization, it can access that data again.
• When a member account leaves an organization, all tags attached to the account are deleted.
• The removed member account is no longer affected by any policies applied in the organization. Specifically, the permission restrictions imposed by SCPs are gone, and the IAM users in the account may have more permissions.
• The member accounts you invited to join your organization can leave the organization or be removed from the organization, but the accounts you created via Organizations cannot.
