# Transfer a reserved IP

Move a reserved public IP from one project to another project of the same account.

## Before you begin

You need the Owner or Admin role to transfer a reserved IP. The IP must be **Available**, so if it
is **Attached**, [detach it](/tir/tir-reserved-ip/how-to/detach-a-reserved-ip/) from every
resource first.

You can transfer to any other project in the same account except an AI Labs or private workspace
project. Only a public IP can be transferred. To use a VPC IP (**Type** Private) in another
project, delete it and reserve a new one there.

## Transfer the IP

1. In TIR, open your project. In the side menu, under **PLATFORM SERVICES**, select **Networking**,
   then **Reserve IP**.
2. In the row of the IP, open the **Action** menu and select **Transfer IP**.
3. In **Transfer Reserve IP**, open **Select Project** and choose the target project. The list
   holds every other project of your account.
4. Select **Transfer IP**.

The IP leaves this project's list and appears in the target project's list, where you can attach
it. If the transfer is refused, see
[Troubleshooting Reserve IP](/tir/tir-reserved-ip/troubleshooting/tir-reserved-ip/).
