Definition and scope
How to Transfer an XRPL NFT addresses a distinct part of non-fungible tokens. Use offers and acceptance transactions to move an NFT between accounts.
XRPL NFTs are protocol-native ledger objects rather than smart-contract records. This collection follows an NFToken from its identifier and mint settings through custody, offers, transfers, brokered sales, royalties, storage pages, and destruction. An on-ledger token records protocol ownership and identifiers; off-ledger media, licensing, authenticity, and marketplace claims require separate evidence.
How it works
Native NFT transfers use NFTokenCreateOffer and NFTokenAcceptOffer. A direct transfer commonly creates a zero-price sell offer restricted to a destination, which that account accepts in a separate transaction.
- NFTokenCreateOffer: verify this field, object, or component against the cited protocol documentation.
- NFTokenAcceptOffer: verify this field, object, or component against the cited protocol documentation.
- Owner: verify this field, object, or component against the cited protocol documentation.
- Destination: verify this field, object, or component against the cited protocol documentation.
Practical example and checks
The owner creates a destination-restricted offer for the exact NFTokenID, shares the offer index out of band, and both parties verify validated ownership after acceptance.
For production use, preserve the exact signed or queried data, record the network and validated ledger reference, and compare the result with the current primary documentation before changing off-ledger state.

NFT transfers are offer-based, not Payment transactions. Verify token ID, offer owner, destination restriction, amount, issuer, and expiration before accepting.
An on-ledger token records protocol ownership and identifiers; off-ledger media, licensing, authenticity, and marketplace claims require separate evidence.
Current network status
Enabled on XRPL Mainnet. NonFungibleTokensV1_1 was enabled on XRPL Mainnet in feature responses from both official public servers at review time. Client and service support can still vary.
Status reviewed 2026-08-23. Amendment-dependent behavior must be rechecked against the network's live feature state before operational use.
