# Transfer an NFT

The transfer instruction transfers the ownership of one NFT to another address.

```
$ ppl-nft transfer --from /root/.config/put/id2.json –nft
62Tt6NNUxQbBYx6x5P1s42t7KWQdDamn9ATb6Ls5HYVv --recipient 
DySd8hi7Z4jrV3ixAk5dT1kPJQzKMiUyyCF38DiJypLY

 recipient:  DySd8hi7Z4jrV3ixAk5dT1kPJQzKMiUyyCF38DiJypLY

```

The transfer parameter must be the private key of the NFT. 

After the transfer transaction is completed on the chain, the owner of the NFT will change and the sender will not have the right to operate the NFT.

```
