When Will I Be Billed for Reservation Price?

You will not be billed for pay-per-use EIPs bound to instances and yearly/monthly EIPs.

If your pay-per-use EIP has no instance bound, you will be billed for the EIP reservation price. For details, see Pay-per-Use EIP Billing.

You will be billed for the EIP and fixed bandwidth.
