Azure AD Tenant-to-Tenant Basic Transition

Azure Active Directory migration from one Microsoft 365 tenant to another. Usually, you will need this type of migration when a company merges or acquires another company, or you would like to migrate to a different geographic region.

Azure AD Tenant-to-Tenant migration will allow you to transfer Azure AD data from one tenant to another. We can move users and groups, saving all current logins. Please note that export of passwords from Azure AD is impossible, so saving the current user passwords will not work. The users will be assigned a temporary password they can enter in the new tenant and create their own permanent password.

This service involves a cut-over migration, during which all data will be exported from the source tenant and uploaded to a new one. After that, all employees will need to reconfigure their devices if they are using Azure AD authorization. It is also necessary to configure applications and other services that use Azure AD. This option is suitable for companies with a small number of employees and resources in Azure.

You may also want to consider the staged data migration, which will allow employees to use resources in one tenant and passing authorization in another.
