Notion sites can’t be moved to a new workspace without new URLs. Transfer ownership within the same workspace to keep links intact.
Transferring a Notion site to a completely different workspace or account is not officially supported. Notion URLs are tied to the workspace and the unique page IDs, so moving pages to a new workspace will generate new URLs, breaking all existing links and potentially affecting SEO.
However, there is a workaround that allows you to keep your URLs intact while giving control to a new account.
Step-by-Step: Giving the Site to a New Account
Invite the New Account
- Go to Account Name located in the upper left corner of your Current Notion Workspace
- Choose Invite Members
- Invite the new account as Admin
- They must accept the invite first
Promote to Workspace Owner
- In the same workspace members list, go to Settings
- Click Teamspaces
- Change their role to Workspace Owner
- Confirm the change
- ✅ Now they control the workspace — including all pages, billing, and permissions
Remove the Old Owner (Optional)
- After confirming that the new account can access everything:
- Go to Members → select old account → remove them (this needs a business plan to modify the roles)
- ⚠️ Only do this after ownership transfer is confirmed
If you really want to move it to a different workspace, you have to duplicate the notion site and follow the instructions on this link: Move and Duplicate Content
Important Notes
- You cannot remove the old owner before making the new account a Workspace Owner — Notion won’t allow it
- The new account automatically gets all pages, including the site once they are Workspace Owner
- Placement in a Teamspace is not required to “give” the site — it just helps organize pages
