# Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.4.x.x EOL

Kong

As of Aug 31 2026, Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.4 will enter its End of Life (EOL) phase and will no longer be fully supported by Kong. Following this, Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.4 will enter a 12-month [_sunset support_](https://developer.konghq.com/gateway/version-support-policy/#sunset-support)_sunset support_ period, focused on helping customers upgrade to a current version of Kong Gateway Enterprise. The sunset support period will end in August 2027.

Customers running Kong Gateway Enterprise 3.4 are encouraged to upgrade to a newer version as soon as possible to maintain support.

For more information, read our [_support policy_](https://developer.konghq.com/gateway/version-support-policy/)_support policy_, which describes the support duration for each version of Kong Gateway.
