We have a tenant that we created for an application we are building. We want to transfer ownership of this tenant to our client.

What is the official process for doing that?

Is there any real legal or technical difference between a tenant that is “transferred” to our client and a tenant that the client created themselves?

Hi @martygearbox,

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

You can transfer ownership of a tenant following these steps:

- [Invite a new Dashboard admin](https://auth0.com/docs/dashboard-access/add-dashboard-users) with the “Admin” permission.
- Have the new admin accept the invitation, log in and navigate to the [Dashboard \> Tenant Settings \> Tenant Members](https://manage.auth0.com/#/tenant/admins) section.
- Click the “Remove” button under the more options icon next to the old admin (the tenant owner).
- After removing the tenant owner, the new admin will become the new tenant owner.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I would be happy to help.
