Claude Platform Docs (Data residency): two settings. Inference geo (parameter inference_geo): "global" (default) "Inference may run in any available geography"; "us" "Inference runs only in US-based infrastructure" (surcharge 1.1x, Claude 4.6 and newer only). Workspace geo (storage at rest and endpoint processing): "Currently, 'us' is the only available workspace geo." According to the same documentation (retrieved 2026-10-18): "Inference geo: Only 'us' and 'global' are available." and "Workspace geo: Only 'us' is currently available."; an EU region is therefore not currently offered. On Amazon Bedrock/Google Cloud, the endpoint URL or the inference profile determines the region (not part of this entry).
