Usage notes

  • Use trasferimento for moving a person, employee, money, or data; passaggio is broader and often means a ride, transition, or handoff.
  • For job relocation, say trasferimento in un'altra sede or chiedere un trasferimento; relocation itself is often trasferimento, not trasloco.
  • Trasferimento is common in bureaucracy, work, school, banking, and sports. In casual speech about changing house, trasloco is usually more natural.
