  "abstract": "Young adulthood is a period of significant and unique physiological, psychological, sexual and social upheaval. Related challenges can have an impact on effective diabetes self-management, with high rates of unplanned healthcare use recorded for many, and consequent increases in the risks of premature morbidity and mortality. Healthcare professionals need guidance in delivering transition support for adolescents and young adults with diabetes. This would help to facilitate the formulation and implementation of local policies and procedures, enabling guidelines to be translated into practice and improving transition of care readiness. This led ISPAD, EASD and ADA to convene a working group to produce a consensus report on the transition from paediatric to adult diabetes healthcare services. The ACCORD and AGREE II recommendations for the development of consensus reports and clinical guidelines, respectively, were followed. Existing diabetes-specific recommendations on the transition of care, published statements, a prior position paper, general recommendations and online toolkits were initially identified and reviewed. Current evidence was then systematically reviewed, supplemented with primary data on the perceptions and experiences of healthcare professionals and of people with diabetes and their caregivers from global surveys. Evidence with a grading of A or B was automatically included in the consensus statements; evidence with a C or E grading was subjected to a Delphi survey for validation. Consensus was obtained for 31 statements on the full transition of care continuum and the three unique stages of pre-transfer, transfer and post-transfer. This consensus report should be viewed as a guide and adjusted to local settings.\n\nGraphical Abstract:\n\nSupplementary Information: The online version contains peer-reviewed but unedited supplementary material available at https://doi.org/10.1007/s00125-026-06803-5.",
