Some time ago we bought some licenses for Home & Business Office (PC, Mac). These are currently registered on Personal Microsoft accounts.

In the meantime we have set up Azure AD for our domain and would like to completely abolish the Personal Microsoft accounts in this context.

How can the licenses be transferred from the Personal Microsoft accounts to the related Azure AD accounts?

    @Steffen Sledz
    Thank you for the post!

    Since this has to do with an Office license for Home & Business, I've added the "office-online-server-general" tag to see if someone from their team can look into this issue. Additionally, I did find some documentation that might help with your issue:

    I'd also recommend reaching out to the Microsoft 365 and Office forum.

    If you have any other questions, please let me know.
    Thank you for your time and patience throughout this issue.
