Use this page to inform Bing of any content that you have removed due to a legal right, requirement, or otherwise.
The Content Removal Tool allows you to notify Bing about two types of outdated content in our web results:

|---|
| If you are the webmaster or site owner of the site you wish to remove content for, please verify your site in Webmaster Tools and use the Block URLs tool to remove a URL or cached page from the Bing search results. |
When a page has been removed from a website it will eventually drop out of our search index as we re-crawl the page and find it is gone. However, this re-crawl process can take time. The Content Removal tool allows you to notify us of the fact that the URL of the page is broken (404 - Not Found). If you submit a page removal requests, we will check whether the page is in fact no longer live on the web and if that is the case, we will expedite the process of removing the URL from our search results. If, however, the URL points to a page that is still live on the web, you are given the option to remove outdated cached content instead. If we are unable to determine either (for example, because we cannot connect to the server on which the page resides) you will not be able to submit a page removal or outdated cache removal request at this moment in time.
You can submit a page removal request for a page that is no longer live on the web (404) by doing the following:
When you click submit, we will run a check whether the page is actually no longer available on the web. If that is the case, we will submit the request and add it the Submission History table. However, if we detect that the page is still live on the web we will prompt that you can only submit an outdated cache removal (see steps below).
When a page is still live on the web, the Bing crawler (Bingbot) will revisit it in regular intervals to update the content in our index and store a copy in the Bing cache. However, changes can take time to be reflected in the index and the cached page. You can notify Bing about outdated cache by providing the URL and a piece of text from the outdated cached page that is no longer present on the page that is live on the web.
You can submit an outdated cache removal request for a page that is live on the web (HTTP status code 200) and for which we still have old and outdated content in our cache by doing the following:
We will now check whether the page actually no longer contains the words that you've entered. If we've established that, your request will be added to the Submission History table below, showing you the date, Content URL, Removal Type and Status, along with the HTTP Status Code we received from the server.
The Submission History table will show you the most recent submissions that were made for the Microsoft account with which you are logged in. Since this is a history table of the requests you made and their status, you cannot remove or edit individual items afterwards.

| Valid removal requests are usually reflected in our index within 24 hours of submitting the request. |
