# Canceling cloud deletion

This section explains how to cancel cloud deletion if [initiated](delete.md) by mistake. You cannot delete a cloud linked to a billing account with the `SUSPENDED` status. For information about canceling deletion due to outstanding payments, see [Billing cycle for individuals](../../../billing/payment/billing-cycle-individual.md) and [Billing cycle for businesses and individual entrepreneurs](../../../billing/payment/billing-cycle-business.md).

You can cancel deletion while the cloud status is `PENDING_DELETION`.

{% note alert %}

While the cloud is `PENDING_DELETION`, your disks, reserved IP addresses, and other data remain in storage. The storage cost is calculated at the previous rate. Track how much the resources cost you in [Yandex Cloud Billing](https://center.yandex.cloud/billing/accounts).

{% endnote %}

To be able to cancel the deletion of a cloud, you must have the `resource-manager.clouds.owner` role for the cloud. If you cannot perform this operation, contact the [cloud owner](../../concepts/resources-hierarchy.md#owner).
