Managing external identities to enable secure access for partners, customers, and other non-employees
URGENT: Tenant blocked due to inactivity (AADSTS5000225) – Unable to login or create support ticket
Hello,
I am writing to request urgent assistance to reactivate my Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) tenant, which has been blocked due to inactivity (Error code: AADSTS5000225).
The Situation:
- My tenant was blocked on January 9, 2026.
According to Microsoft policy, I am currently within the 20-day grace period before the tenant is permanently deleted.
Because the block is at the tenant level, I am completely locked out of the Azure Portal, Entra Admin Center, and Microsoft Support portal. I cannot raise a standard support ticket.
Request: I need a Microsoft moderator or a support engineer to initiate the manual reactivation process for my tenant. This tenant contains critical project data and my primary developer identity.
Error Details (for internal tracking):
Error Code: AADSTS5000225
I am ready to verify my ownership via private message.
Thank you for your immediate help in preventing permanent data loss.
Best regards, Shaokun Lou
