# Transfer an NFT

### Overview

This is the simplest of transfer methods the API can process, a couple of things will happen:

* We'll check that the Treasury owns and can send your NFT to an account
* We'll attempt to send the NFT to an account, if it fails then a error will query to whether an account has associated with said NFT id.
