# Transfer licenses between teams

You can transfer any licenses between teams in your organization’s profile. This can be helpful when you want to delegate the management of specific licenses to a certain team administrator or when you need to add licenses to your [License
Vault](https://www.jetbrains.com.cn/en-us/help/license-vault-cloud/getting_started.html#add-more-licenses-to-explore-license-vault-to-the-fullest) or IDE Services instance for automatic distribution.

> **Tip:**
> Org admins can [transfer any licenses to and
> between any existing
> teams](#Transfer-licenses-to-an-existing-team). Team admins can transfer only the licenses that belong to their team, and only [to a new team](#Transfer-licenses-to-a-new-team).
