+**AFI ID Support in New Versions**
+
+When adding new AMI versions, AFI IDs can be configured if you select the AMI (standalone) delivery method. The same validation rules that apply during product creation also apply when adding new versions, including character restrictions, uniqueness requirements, regional constraints, and account ownership verification. Once a version is created with AFI IDs, those AFI IDs become immutable and cannot be edited later. If you need to modify AFI IDs, you must create a new version with the updated configuration. New versions with AFI IDs can coexist alongside existing versions that also have AFI IDs, allowing you to maintain multiple FPGA configurations across different product versions. During version preparation, AWS Marketplace creates regional AFI clones to ensure your product is available across supported AWS Regions, streamlining the deployment process for your buyers. This process is handled by the AWS Marketplace Seller Operations team and can take longer than other AMI Add Version requests. During this time, your the request will be 'Under Review'.
