Heya,
If you’re asking how to change the IP address of your Virtual Private Server (VPS) on DigitalOcean, here’s what you need to understand:
DigitalOcean Droplets (VPS) come with a static IP address. Once a Droplet is created, its IP address remains with it until the Droplet is destroyed. You cannot manually change the IP address of an existing Droplet.
Hello there,
This is a question that pops up occasionally in the community.
All Droplets come with static IP addresses which can not be changed. But what you could do instead is:
- Take a snapshot of your Droplet
- Then create a new Droplet based on that snapshot
- That way the new Droplet will have the same content as the old one but it will have a new IP address as well.
For more information you can check out the documentation here:

Best,
Bobby
