+Amazon S3 now supports tags on S3 Tables for attribute-based access control (ABAC) and cost allocation| Amazon S3 now supports tagging S3 Tables for attribute-based access control (ABAC) and cost allocation. You can use tags for ABAC to automatically manage permissions for users and roles accessing table buckets and tables, eliminating frequent IAM or S3 Tables resource-based policy updates and simplifying how you govern access at scale. You can also add tags to individual tables to track and organize AWS costs using AWS Billing and Cost Management. Amazon S3 supports tags on S3 Tables in all AWS Regions where S3 Tables is available. You can get started with tagging by using the AWS Management Console, SDK, API, or CLI. For more information, see [Tagging for cost allocation or attribute-based access control (ABAC)](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/tagging).| November 6, 2025
