AWS Organizations now provides customers the ability to directly transfer an account to a different organization without first having to remove the account from their current organization. This new capability streamlines the process of transferring accounts between organizations, whether those transfers are part of ongoing operations or an acquisition integration project.
Allowing direct transfers of accounts between organizations eliminates the previous requirement for the account to temporarily operate as a standalone account. With the standalone step removed, customers no longer need to manually configure the account’s payment method, contact information, and support plan as part of the transfer. Direct transfers of accounts also ensure the account maintains access to the governance features and consolidated billing benefits of the AWS organization they are in before and after the transfer process. The updated process is simpler and uses the same AWS Organizations console experience and APIs as before: an organization invites an account, and the account accepts the invite.
Direct account transfers between organizations are now available in all commercial AWS Regions and the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions.
To learn more about directly transferring accounts between AWS organizations, see Managing account invitations with AWS Organizations from the AWS user guide, or review the AWS Organizations API Reference.
