There are three options for transferring work to a different account:

• Transfer a project

Transfer a project

When you transfer a project, all its files will move to the recipient’s team or organization.

When accepting the transfer, the recipient can choose whether to keep or remove access for everyone from the sending team or organization.

There are three steps to transfer a project:

1. The recipient chooses a location for the project
2. The sender makes a transfer request
3. The recipient accepts the transfer request

1. Choose a location for the project

Before you can move a project, the recipient needs to choose a location for it.

An admin at the receiving team or organization will need to provide the sender with a destination URL. This tells Figma where the resources should go. To get this URL:

2. Send a transfer request

1. In the file browser, navigate to the project you want to transfer.
2. Click the  down arrow next to the project name and select Transfer.
3. Review the information in the modal and press Next.
4. Enter the destination URL and email address of your contact at the other company and press Request transfer.

The admins at the receiving team or organization will receive an email to accept the transfer. You'll receive and email confirmation once the transfer is complete.

3. Accept a transfer request

When someone sends your company a transfer request, Figma emails all admins of your plan asking them to review and accept the transfer.

• On the Professional plan, these are team admins.
• On the Organization or Enterprise plans, these are organization admins.

You’ll need to decide whether people from the sending party should keep their access to the resources and get added to your team or organization. You can choose to either Remove collaborators, or Keep all existing collaborators.

After you accept, you can find the project by navigating to its parent team in the file browser.

Send a copy of a project

When you send a copy of a project, all its files will move to the recipient’s team or organization. Only people on the receiving team or organization will have access to this copy. Any file branches, comments, and version history won't be transferred—these will stay with your original files.

There are three steps to transfer a project:

1. The recipient chooses a location for the project
2. The sender makes a transfer request
3. The recipient accepts the transfer request

1. Choose a location for the project

Before you can move the project, the recipient needs to choose a location for it.

An admin at the receiving team or organization will need to provide the sender with a destination URL. This tells Figma where the resources should go. To get this URL:

2. Send a transfer request

1. In the file browser, navigate to the project you want to transfer.
2. Click the   down arrow next to the project name and select Send a copy.
3. Review the information in the modal and press Next.
4. Enter the destination URL and email address of your contact at the other organization and press Send.

   Note: If you’re transferring a project to a company on the Organization or Enterprise plan, your contact must be an organization admin.

We’ll send an email to your contact so they can accept the transfer, and we’ll send you an email once the transfer is complete.

3. Accept a transfer request

When someone sends you a transfer request, Figma will send you an email asking you to review and accept the transfer.

It takes around 5 minutes to move the project between companies. Members of the project won’t be able to use certain features of Figma during this time, like sharing the project or accessing some of its files. We recommend accepting the transfer at a time that will cause minimal disruption to members of the project.

Once the transfer is complete, you can find the project by navigating to it in the file browser.

Transfer a team

When you transfer a team, all its projects and files will move to the recipient’s organization.

When accepting the transfer, the recipient can choose whether to keep or remove access for everyone from the sending team or organization.

There are three steps to transfer a team:

1. The recipient provides a URL for the destination organization
2. The sender makes a transfer request
3. The recipient accepts the transfer request

1. Get the URL for the destination organization

Before you can move a team, the recipient needs to choose a location for it.

An admin at the receiving organization will need to provide the sender with a destination URL. This tells Figma where the resources should go.

1. Log in to your organization in a web browser.
2. From the file browser, click All teams or All workspaces.
3. Copy the entire URL in your browser address bar.
4. Send this URL to the admin sending the team.

2. Send a transfer request

We’ll email your contact and other organization admins in the receiving organization so they can accept the transfer. You will receive an email when the transfer is complete.

3. Accept a transfer request

When someone sends a request to transfer a team, Figma will email the designated contact and all organization admins asking them to review and accept the transfer.

Everyone from the sending party with a role on the team will get an account in your organization. This may add more paid seats to your subscription.

You can avoid paying for any seats from the sending party by making sure your default seat type is set to viewer-restricted or by manually adjusting everyone’s seats after the transfer is complete.

After you accept, you can find the team by navigating to it in the file browser.
