Can I transfer a DOI from one Repository account to another?

Yes, you can transfer one DOI or all the DOIs from one Repository account to another.

You can only do this between Repository accounts that sit under the same Member or Consortium Organization account. If you are a Consortium Lead, you can transfer DOIs between any of the Repository accounts within your Consortium.

Log in to DataCite Fabrica with your Direct Member, Consortium Organization, or Consortium Lead account and then navigate to the Repositories tab. Open the record of the DOI you want to transfer, and the “Transfer DOI” button will appear on the left panel. When you click here, you can enter the ID of the Repository account to where you want to transfer the DOI. The DOI will then appear in the list of DOIs under the DOIs tab of the destination Repository.
