Updated on 15 September, 2025

Explains how to preserve a Vultr Compute instances IPv4 address during transfers by converting it to a Reserved IP


Yes, you can preserve the public IPv4 address of your Vultr Compute instance by converting it into a Reserved IP. This allows you to detach and reassign the IP address to another instance.

However, Reserved IPs are region-bound and cannot be transferred or attached to instances in a different region. To retain the IP, ensure the new instance is deployed in the same region as the original.
