I want to Move/Migrate Azure VM from one tenant to another tenant.

Could someone please provide me guide link how should I do this ?

Note :

I'm not asking for Move VM from one subscription or region to another subscription or region.

    Hello @Amit Badgujar · Welcome to Q&A platform and thank you for your query.

    Tenant contain Identities but not resources (like VMs, Storage Accounts, Key Vaults etc.). Resources are always created under subscription(s). A subscription can be associated to one tenant at a given point in time. So, when you say "Move VM from one tenant to another tenant", you actually move the VM from a subscription associated with one tenant to another subscription associated with the other tenant.

    All of these suggestions sound great like creating a new VM etc but if you are moving data from one tenant to the other tenant from a different company this is not a simple process as you don't have easy access to the different tenants. Microsoft does not offer a robust tool that can do this for the complete migration.
