Affected time

Changes
To continuously enhance model performance and service experience, while optimizing underlying resource management, QwenCloud will decommission the mainline models for the Beijing and Singapore regions listed below on October 10, 2026.
The specific decommissioning list is as follows:
- qwen-turbo
- qwen-vl-max
- qwen-vl-plus
- qwq-plus
- qvq-max
Recommended alternatives
We recommend replacing the soon-to-be-decommissioned models with the latest Qwen3.6/Qwen3.7 series models.
Given that QwenCloud will continue to rapidly iterate and release new, higher-performance models between the announcement date and the actual decommissioning date, the replacement recommendations outlined in this notice will not be frequently updated to reflect newly launched models. We kindly encourage you to stay tuned to the Models page during your business migration and daily usage, so you can flexibly adopt the latest model versions best suited to your specific business scenarios.
Impact of the change
After decommissioning, model inference will no longer be supported for these models. Applications and services that continue to call the decommissioned models will fail to return results.
If you are currently using any of the above models, please ensure that you complete the following before October 10, 2026:
- API endpoint migration: Update your integration to point to the recommended replacement models;
- Parameter tuning: Adjust inference parameters as needed for the new models;
- Business validation: Thoroughly test and verify your workflows to ensure expected performance.
