# Unlink Client Organization

As a Provider, you may need to remove your Provider-client relationship with an organization if you are no longer providing services to them. In order for a client organization to be eligible for removal:

- You must be a [Provider admin](https://bitwarden.com/en-gb/help/provider-users/#provider-user-types/).
- The client organization must have at least one [confirmed owner](https://bitwarden.com/en-gb/help/managing-users/#add-new-members/).

> [!NOTE] Deleting a client organization.
> Client organizations can only be unlinked from within the Provider Portal UI, not **deleted**. To delete a client organization, you must be a Provider admin and follow these steps:
> 
> 1. [Open the client organization](https://bitwarden.com/en-gb/help/manage-client-orgs/) and navigate to **Settings** → **Organization info**.
> 2. Scroll to the **Danger Zone** section and select **Delete Organization**.

Once these criteria are met:

1. Open the Provider Portal using the product switcher:

2. In the Clients view, use the ⋮ options menu for the desired client organization to select the [close] **Unlink organization** option:

> [!TIP] Once a client org is removed
> Once a client organization is unlinked, they will need to set up their own billing in order to retain access to Bitwarden services.
