How to Transfer Your LoL Account to Another Server

You can move your League of Legends account to another server by buying a transfer in the client Store for 2600 RP. The move is usually instant, keeps your champions, skins and Riot ID, and starts a 90-day cooldown. Your current rank doesn't come with you, and some servers can't be transferred to at all.

Server transfer at a glance

How to transfer your LoL account

1. Make sure you have at least 2600 RP, unless you've received a free transfer token.
2. Open the League client and go to the Store.
3. Click the Account button next to Purchase RP.
4. Choose the server transfer option and select the destination server.
5. Confirm the purchase.

Most transfers finish almost right away. Riot notes that accounts holding a very large amount of RP may get a short manual security review first.

Check the destination twice before confirming. Riot can't reverse accidental transfers, and transfers are on the non-refundable list. See our LoL refund guide for what can and can't be refunded.

Servers you can't transfer to

Most Riot servers accept transfers, but these restrictions apply:

• Nobody can transfer to Brazil, Russia or Korea.
• Accounts on Brazil or Russia can't transfer out to any server.
• Accounts on Türkiye can't transfer to LATAM North or LATAM South.
• Accounts on Vietnam or Taiwan can't transfer to North America, and transfers between Vietnam and Taiwan are blocked too.

If the server you want isn't offered in the transfer menu, one of these rules is the likely reason.

What transfers with you

Almost all of your account comes along:

• Account level and Honor level
• Champions, skins, ward skins, emotes and icons
• Rune pages and item sets
• Blue Essence and your remaining RP (after paying for the transfer)
• Hextech crafting inventory
• Champion Mastery levels
• Your friends list
• Your Riot ID, and your username as long as it's globally unique
• Statistics such as games played and wins
• Loading screen borders
• Eternals, Challenges, objective and Battle Pass progress
• Clash trophies, banners and flag frames
• XP boosts

For Teamfight Tactics, your Little Legends, arena skins, Hextech content, mission progress and pass progress also move.

What about MMR?

Your hidden MMR comes with you, but Riot says it's adapted to the new region. You don't start from a blank slate.

What doesn't transfer

• Your current ranked standing. Your tier and division stay behind, so plan on playing placement games on the new server.
• Victory Points.
• Your Shop offers.
• Clash Club memberships and Clash match history.

If you care about a ranked reward that depends on Victory Points or end-of-season standing, think about timing. Transferring mid-season means rebuilding your ranked progress on the new server.

Free transfer promotions

Riot sometimes runs promotions that push players toward a specific server. When it does, eligible accounts get a free transfer token for that destination. The token only works while the promotion is running and is removed when it ends.

Outside of promotions, there's no discount. The standard price is 2600 RP.

Transfer or make a new account?

A transfer isn't the only way to play on another server. Each Riot account is tied to one League region, so you can also create a separate account for the other server. Riot's own example is keeping a main account and adding extra accounts with region names.

A transfer makes sense if you're moving countries for good, or if your ping on the current server is too high to play. A second account suits players who want to try another region now and then, or play with friends abroad without leaving their own server.

Before you transfer

• Check your region. On the login screen, click the cog in the bottom-right corner to see which region your account is on.
• Check your Victory Points and finish any Clash plans, since neither moves with you.
• Tell your Clash team. You'll leave your Clash club.
• Mobile TFT players: if you only play TFT on a phone, you need to install the Windows or Mac client and start the transfer from there.
• Confirm the RP balance. The cost comes out of your RP, and the rest moves with you.

Your Riot ID isn't affected, so friends can still find you. If you want a fresh name for the new region, our guide to changing your Riot ID explains the free 90-day name change.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a server transfer cost in League of Legends?

A server transfer costs 2600 RP. The only exception is a regional transfer promotion, where eligible accounts receive a free transfer token that works only for the promoted server and only while the promotion lasts.

Do you lose your rank when you transfer servers in LoL?

Your ranked tier and division don't transfer, so you'll play placements again on the new server. Your hidden MMR does move, adjusted for the new region, which affects how you're placed.

How long does a LoL server transfer take?

It's usually near-instant. Accounts with a very large amount of RP can have a short wait while Riot does a manual security check.

Can I transfer my account to Korea or Brazil?

No. Riot doesn't allow transfers into Brazil, Russia or Korea from any server. Accounts already on Brazil or Russia also can't transfer out.

How often can you transfer servers in LoL?

Once every 90 days. Each transfer starts a 90-day cooldown before the account can move again.

Can I play on another server without transferring?

Yes. Create a separate Riot account for that server and log in to it when you want to play there. You won't have your champions or skins on it, but you keep your original account as it is.
