Where can I find the official support policies for Ubuntu versions? Need to know, until when 20.04 will be supported and details around this. Many thanks in advance!

  • Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! Ironically, sometimes reading the [What topics can I ask about here?](https://askubuntu.com/help/on-topic) help page suggested on the *"Ask a question"* page comes in handy! This is actually addressed there under, *"Using and administering [currently supported](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases), official Ubuntu flavors"*! ;-) – NotTheDr01ds Nov 22 '22 at 22:53

The simple rule is -

LTS versions on Ubuntu are fully supported for 5 years after release (ie 20.04 LTS will be supported until April 2025).

Following the 5 years of standard support, you can get another 5 years of extended security maintenance.

The full details are available from Canonical: https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle
