It's actually very easy to migrate your data from one Office 365 tenant to another. It can be done fairly cheap too through third-party tools, or even free depending on how much data you're looking at migration. I'm a member of the community just like you and not affiliated with Microsoft. I'd be happy to guide you through the process though. Here's the gist:
- If you're the only user, you can make an Outlook PST, Otherwise, consider using a thirdparty tool (I recommend MigrationWiz BitTitan)
- Once you have the data moved from one tenant to another, you'll need to defederate the domain from GoDaddy, This is as simple as a few PowerShell commands.
- Lastly, add the domain to your new Office 365 tenant and add it as the primary alias for all users.
If you need further help with this, I can give you step by step instructions through the process.

O365 Personal/Family does not include Exchange
And no you will not be able to use O365 P or F with your GoDaddy domain/email once GoDaddy is cancelled
There is a whole complicated process to go through to transfer the Domain to MS, an O365 Bus version

Hi Stacey,
Apologies about the severely delayed replied.
So I am able to log into my Microsoft account and go daddy account but I need to activate office 365. To do this it says the admin needs to assign the license to my account.
Every time I click on the admin screen in my microsoft portal it takes me to my Godaddy admin page but there is no place to add a license.
I have attached screen shots below
Thanks
Josh
Dear JoshBV
Good day! Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.
Based on your description, it seems that you can't access your office apps and got the error message.
Regarding you can't access office 365 apps, in this scenario, to help you better and clarify your situation, we would like to confirm some information with you:
- Generally, you should go to the Microsoft 365 sign-in page>Enter your Microsoft 365 email address and password not your GoDaddy username and password >then select sign in>You might need to select your account type as Work or school, not Personal and you can access the office apps successfully. May I know how did you sign in office 365? With your office 3656 account or your Gmail account?
- Or you can sign into your email using your domain name. For the detailed information how to sign into your MS 365 account from GoDaddy, you can refer to Sign in to my Microsoft 365 account | Microsoft 365 from GoDaddy - GoDaddy Help PH
- May I know did you purchase office 365 business use the same email address from GoDaddy?
- Please share a screenshot of the error message you got to us.
If you want to migrate from GoDaddy to o365, you can refer to godaddy with office 365 to office 365 migration - Microsoft Q&A
If you want to use email service with Office 365 You need to configure the DNS in your domain register. For your reference:
Connect your DNS records at GoDaddy to Microsoft 365 - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn
If this is not your scenario or any unclear, you can post back in your free time.
Your understanding and patience will be highly appreciated. I hope that you are keeping safe and well!
Sincerely,
Stacey | Microsoft Community Moderator
