What the notice says

Microsoft’s text, safely structured

To streamline Microsoft Word and focus on core productivity features, we are retiring the Send to Kindle integration, which allows users to upload documents directly to Kindle from Word.

When this will happen

The retirement will begin on February 9th, 2026, and the feature will be fully removed by March 9th, 2026.

How this will affect your organization

The Send to Kindle feature will no longer be available in Word for Window desktop, Word for Mac desktop, and Word for the web after the retirement period. (This feature was never available for iOS/Android.) Users will still be able to upload .doc and .docx files to Kindle using https://www.amazon.com/sendtokindle. Documents already sent to Kindle will not be affected by this retirement.

What you need to do to prepare

No admin action is required. We recommend informing users of this change and updating any internal documentation or workflows that reference the Send to Kindle feature.
