# Remove tags from Lightsail resources
<a name="amazon-lightsail-deleting-tags"></a>

You can delete tags from an Amazon Lightsail resource. Deleting a tag from one resource does not delete the same tag from all other resources. To completely delete a tag from all resources, you must remove that tag from each resource. This guide provides the steps to delete tags from a resource.

**Note**  
For more information about tags, what resources can be tagged, and the tag restrictions, see [Tags](amazon-lightsail-tags.md).

**To delete tags from a resource**

1. Sign in to the [Lightsail console](https://lightsail.aws.amazon.com/).

1. In the left navigation pane, choose the resource type that you want to delete tags from. For example, to delete tags from a DNS zone, choose **Networking**. Or choose **Instances** to delete tags from an instance.
**Note**  
Instances, container services, CDN distributions, buckets, databases, disks, DNS zones, and load balancers can be tagged using the Lightsail console. However, more Lightsail resources can be tagged using the [Lightsail API operations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lightsail/2016-11-28/api-reference/Welcome.html), or the [AWS Command Line Interface](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/lightsail/) (AWS CLI) or SDKs. For a full list of Lightsail resources that support tagging, see [Tags](amazon-lightsail-tags.md).

1. Choose the resource that you want to delete tags from.

1. On the management page for the resource you selected, choose the **Tags** tab.
