Can you change organisation ownership of a Google Cloud Project

Is it possible to change the Organisation Ownership of a Google Cloud Account from one organisation to another?

Initially we setup the account under domain.net.au.

Our company was purchased by another company and has setup emails using google under domain.ag.

My boss is now wanting the Google Cloud Account and all its projects to be moved over to domain.ag.

Is this possible without having to re-create them all in the new location? We have a massive database that is highly important to our company that needs to have almost no downtime.

thanks!

To change the organization ownership first you need to contact google support. Also yes, it is possible if you want to move your resources from an old organization account to a new organization account with correct migration plans and roles. Kindly make a note here, the resources would not inherit policies from previous organisations. Hence you need to do the exact setup for your new organization account.

Steps to change Organizational ownership.

  1. Create a list of projects that you’d like to move.
  2. Move all the projects out of any folders in the current organization and into the top level.
  3. Contact Support with a list of projects that you’d like to move from the current organization to another organization.
  4. Support will move the projects out of the current organization so they have no parent (no organization).
  5. Move all the projects into the new organization.

Changing organisational ownership I think you really have to contact support. But if what you meant is moving your resources from the old organisation account to the new one,Yes it is possible to Move resources from one organisation to another. With the right Migration plans and the projectmover roles to the required accounts you can. But note that the resources would not inherit policies from previous organisations hence you have to do accurate setup for your new organisation. Just do an inventory record of what's in the current organisation to know how to prepare the new organisation to avoid issues. If you encounter any error, then you can rollback
