# Migrating A Formula To A Tap
There are times when we may wish to migrate a formula from one tap into another tap. To do this:
1. Create a pull request to the new tap adding the formula file as-is from the original tap. Fix any test failures that may occur due to the stricter requirements for new formulae than existing formula (e.g. `brew audit --strict` must pass for that formula).
2. Create a pull request to the original tap deleting the formula file and add it to `tap_migrations.json` with a commit message like `gv: migrating to homebrew/x11`.
3. Put a link for each pull request in the other pull request so the maintainers can merge them both at once.
Congratulations, you've moved a formula to a tap!
