Extended Long-Term Support (ELTS) for TYPO3 v11 – Now Available for Presale
As we approach the end of TYPO3 v11 LTS's free support on October 31, 2024, it’s time to consider your next step. While upgrading to TYPO3 v12 or v13 may be ideal for some, others might need a bit more time to make the transition. That's where Extended Long-Term Support (ELTS) comes in—giving you an additional three years of critical security updates and bug fixes, keeping your system secure and compliant.
We’ve opened up the presale for ELTS, giving you the chance to secure support before the free community updates stop. Keep reading to learn how ELTS can help you, or visit my.typo3.org to get started.
Why ELTS?
Every TYPO3 LTS release receives three years of free support from the community, ensuring security patches and updates during that period. When this support ends, it’s essential to either upgrade to a newer version or maintain your current version with ELTS, which adds another three years of protection.
If you're responsible for maintaining a TYPO3 v11 LTS installation, ELTS helps ensure your site stays safe and compliant without the immediate pressure of upgrading. For agencies, ELTS is a cost-effective way to manage multiple client sites while providing them with continued support and peace of mind.
What’s New?
Starting this year, ELTS purchases have moved to my.typo3.org, simplifying the process by making it part of your central TYPO3 account. This platform streamlines everything you need in one place—whether you’re purchasing ELTS or managing other TYPO3 services. No more navigating between multiple systems. Now, everything can be done with a few clicks within the My TYPO3 hub.

Additional Benefits for Partners
TYPO3 Solution and Technology Partners gain even more from this offering. In addition to the three-year ELTS period, partners can take advantage of an exclusive fourth year of support. This additional year ensures that mission-critical projects remain secure and operational, especially for those working on long-term engagements.
Why ELTS is the Right Choice
- Extend Your Support Window: With ELTS, your TYPO3 v11 installation is covered for three more years, giving you more time to plan upgrades without compromising on security.

- Peace of Mind: ELTS offers peace of mind for organizations and agencies that need more time for upgrades, allowing for gradual transitions without urgent time pressures.
