Questions
Frequently asked questions
When is php:8.3 end of life?
PHP 8.3 reaches end of life on 31 Dec 2027 (in 14 months), and php:8.3 images get no PHP fixes after that. A variant whose base OS ends first stops being supported earlier; see the table.
Which Alpine Linux version is php:8.3-alpine?
php:8.3-alpine is built on Alpine Linux 3.24, according to its build steps on Docker Hub (checked 16 Oct 2026). That release reaches end of life on 1 Jun 2028.
Which Debian version is php:8.3?
php:8.3 is built on Debian 13 (trixie), according to its build steps on Docker Hub (checked 16 Oct 2026). That release reaches end of life on 30 Jun 2030.
Which php:8.3 variant is supported longest?
They all end together: every php:8.3 variant is supported until 31 Dec 2027, when PHP 8.3 itself reaches end of life. Choosing slim, alpine or a Debian release doesn’t change that.
Where this comes from
The OS release under each tag is read from that tag’s build steps on Docker Hub (the official php image), once a day; last read on 16 Oct 2026. Support dates come from endoflife.date (MIT License), which follows PHP’s release policy. Official images are rebuilt on newer OS releases over time, so a tag can move to a newer OS; this page follows it. See Methodology & sources.
