The '''IANA Functions Stewardship Transition''' is a process and community discussion regarding the transition of [[IANA]] functions stewardship from its historical contract with the United States government's [[NTIA]] to the global Internet community. The process and discussion is spearheaded by [[ICANN]] and its various stakeholder groups, and was catalyzed by an announcement in March 2014 by NTIA that they would be relinquishing the stewardship to the Internet community.

According to an article authored by [[Larry Strickling]], NTIA's Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information and Administrator, the IANA Transition, which was set to begin September 30, 2015 will not be complete until September 30, 2016. The organization believes that while ICANN has made tremendous strides in its transition, it still has more work to accomplish. <ref>[http://www.ntia.doc.gov/blog/2015/update-iana-transition] An Update on the IANA Transition.
