# Azure Government Marketplace images
Microsoft Azure Government Marketplace provides a similar experience as Azure Marketplace. You can choose to deploy prebuilt images from Microsoft and our partners, or upload your own VHDs. This approach gives you the flexibility to deploy your own standardized images if needed.
[!INCLUDE [updated-for-az](~/reusable-content/ce-skilling/azure/includes/updated-for-az.md)]
## Images
To obtain a list of virtual machine images available in Azure Government, [connect to Azure Government via PowerShell](documentation-government-get-started-connect-with-ps.md) and run the following commands:
```powershell
Connect-AzAccount -Environment AzureUSGovernment
Get-AzVMImagePublisher -Location USGovVirginia | `
Get-AzVMImageOffer | `
Get-AzVMImageSku
```
<!--
Get-AzVMImagePublisher -Location USGovVirginia | `
Get-AzVMImageOffer | `
Get-AzVMImageSku | `
Select-Object @{Name="Entry";Expression={"| " + $_.PublisherName + " | " + $_.Offer + " | " + $_.Skus + " |" }} | `
Select-Object -ExpandProperty Entry | `
Out-File vm-images.md
-->
Some of the prebuilt images include pay-as-you-go licensing for specific software. Work with your Microsoft account team or reseller for Azure Government-specific pricing. For more information, see [Virtual machine pricing](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/details/virtual-machines/).
