Unjustified VPC Endpoint Charges in ap-south-1 – How to Identify Source?
I’m seeing VPC Endpoint charges ($0.013 per hour) in ap-south-1 (Mumbai), even though I have deleted all VPC endpoints.
What I have already done:
Deleted all visible VPC Endpoints in ap-south-1 and verified none remain.
Checked all other AWS regions using both EC2 Console and CLI (aws ec2 describe-vpc-endpoints) – no active endpoints found.
Reviewed EC2 Network Interfaces for orphaned ENIs associated with endpoints – none found.
Cost Explorer shows usage type APS1-VpcEndpoint-Hours for the following endpoint IDs:
vpce-01b8391db2f72bff0 vpce-03f2d83d906a50f7a vpce-0663b78df1e77af4c vpce-0d42ac692421862f0
Attempts to delete these IDs via CLI return InvalidVpcEndpoint.NotFound.
Billing shows VpcEndpoint-Hours 328 hours ($4.26) for the month so far.
My questions:
How can I identify the exact resource or service consuming VpcEndpoint-Hours if the endpoint itself is deleted?
i had used vpcendpoint to connect to cloudwatch interface but later deleted the vpc endpoint and currently cloudwatch is showing stale logs and metric of the project i had created 3 days back whose ec2, vpc , vpcendpoint everything is deleted Are CloudWatch Logs or Metrics (or other AWS services) automatically provisioning hidden VPC Endpoints that continue to accrue charges?
Where can I find hidden interfaces, ENIs, or service-managed VPC endpoints that might be responsible?
Will deleting CloudWatch logs/metrics stop VPC Endpoint charges if they are associated with a hidden service endpoint?
I would appreciate guidance on how to permanently stop these charges and identify the source. If this is a billing anomaly, information about a credit adjustment would also be helpful.
Thank you!

Hello.
If you have already deleted the VPC endpoint in the ap-south-1 region, you should not be charged any more than what is currently listed on your bill.
In Cost Explorer, try filtering as shown below to confirm that no costs have been incurred since the day you deleted the VPC endpoint.
If you are still being charged after deleting the VPC endpoint, I recommend contacting AWS Support under "Account and billing".
"Account and billing" inquiries are free of charge.
