Teams Licenses (MC226038)

According to the plans detailed in MC226038, there are going to be changes happening on 3rd December 2020 to how we enable Microsoft Teams for individual users within our tenant. Microsoft are removing the Microsoft Teams enablement setting from within the Microsoft 365 admin center and will rely solely on Microsoft Teams license allocation to decide if a user has access to Microsoft Teams.

I currently have a number of 'Kiosk' workers who have an Exchange Kiosk License and separately a Microsoft Teams Exploratory license to give them access to our Microsoft Teams tenant.  

Will the changes detailed in MC226038 affect our users who access our Microsoft Teams tenant with a Microsoft Teams Exploratory license?

Dear Christian,
As an Independent Advisor and community user, I'll help you with your question.
Your users will have not impact in his access, they can continue using Microsoft Teams with his Microsoft Teams Exploratory license.

By other hand, about Microsoft Teams Exploratory, you have to have in count below information:
"How long does the Teams Exploratory experience last:"
The Microsoft Teams Exploratory experience is available at no additional cost until your next agreement anniversary or renewal on or after January 2021. At that time, end users on a Microsoft Exploratory experience license will need to move to a paid license that includes Teams. Any Microsoft Exploratory experience licenses initiated after that will remain available at no additional cost until your next anniversary or renewal cycle.
