We do not support directly transferring domain ownership from one team to another. Instead, you can download a zone file with all of the domain’s DNS information.

You can find the Download Zone option by clicking the More button to the side of your domain name in the Networking tab.

the Download Zone button in the Domains tab of the control panel

Once downloaded, delete the domain from the old team, add it to the new team, then copy and paste the DNS records from the zone file into the domain in the control panel.

Why aren't my vanity DNS name servers resolving?

If you use vanity or branded DNS nameservers that delegate to DigitalOcean’s nameservers, you must update to new IP addresses.

How do I fix the DNS error "Primary Name Server Not Listed at Parent"?

Update your registrar to use DigitalOcean’s name servers.

How do I add an A record to my app on App Platform?

Apps do not have static IP addresses so you cannot point an A record at an app.
