    I was asked what it took to move a SQL Server 2008 R2 to another Domain.

    The article listed below describes the action necessary to do so:

    Does anyone have any additional input?

    Thank you.

    Moving domains for a sql server has no major headaches. Any current windows logins would need to be changed if there is no trust between the old and new domains.

    You'll likely need to change the service account as well, which you should do via SQL Server configuration manager.

    Since your only moving domains and not changing the server name, it should be straightforward.
