When you transfer billing ownership of your subscription to an account in another Azure AD tenant, you can move the subscription to the new account's tenant. If you do so, all users, groups, or service principals that had [Azure role assignments](../../role-based-access-control/role-assignments-portal.md) to manage subscriptions and its resources lose their access. Only the user in the new account who accepts your transfer request will have access to manage the resources. The new owner must manually add these users to the subscription to provide access to the use who lost it.

It's possible that the original billing account owner who created an Azure account and an Azure subscription leaves your organization. If that situation happens, then their user identity is no longer in the organization's Azure Active Directory. Then the Azure subscription doesn't have a billing owner. This situation prevents anyone from performing billing operations to the account, including viewing, and paying bills. The subscription could go into a past-due state. Eventually the subscription could get disabled because of non-payment. Ultimately, the subscription could get deleted and it would affect every service that runs on the subscription.

When a subscription no longer has a valid billing account owner, Azure sends an email to other Billing account owners, Service Administrators (if any), Co-Administrators (if any), and Subscription Owners informing them of the situation and provides them with a link to accept billing ownership of the subscription. Any one of the users can select the link to accept billing ownership. For more information about billing roles, see [Billing Roles](understand-mca-roles.md) and [Classic Roles and Azure RBAC Roles](../../role-based-access-control/rbac-and-directory-admin-roles.md).
