You will need to save the docker image as a tar file: docker save -o <save image to path> <image name>

Then copy the image to your target machine and then run: docker load -i <path to image tar file>

it depends if all the data is in your image or if you use volumes

see about docker volumes this doc

https://docs.docker.com/engine/tutorials/dockervolumes/

you can docker save

https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/save/

copy the tar archive, and then

docker load

https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/load/

and then deal with the data in the volumes if you had
