To transfer your emails to a different domain on Gmail Business, you need to use Google’s Data Migration service within the Google Admin Console, where you can set up the migration process by selecting your existing Google Workspace account as the source and your new domain as the destination, allowing you to move all your emails over to the new domain while maintaining your user accounts; make sure to update your MX records to point to the new domain once the migration is complete.
Key steps:
- Access Google Admin Console: Log in to your Google Admin Console using a super administrator account.
- Navigate to Data Migration: Go to “Menu > Data > Data import & export > Data Migration”.
- Select Source and Destination: Choose your current Google Workspace account as the source and your new domain as the destination.
- Start Migration: Initiate the migration process and follow the instructions to transfer your emails.
Important Considerations:
- Domain Verification:Ensure you have verified ownership of your new domain with Google before starting the migration process.
- MX Record Update:After migrating your emails, update your MX records to point to your new domain to ensure new emails are delivered to the correct address.
- User Account Management:If needed, create new user accounts on the new domain with corresponding email addresses to match your existing users.
