How to transfer the ownership of a Google Sheets document to another account outside of the Google Workspace organization without losing cell history?

The method of cross-domain transfer with preserving file IDs using Google Shared Drives is well described here.

Summary:

  1. Setup Google Shared Drive.
  2. Neutralize files’ ownership in the Shared Drive.
  3. Assign new ownership.

If you do not have access to Google Workspace (former G Suite), you can take advantage of ready-made solutions available in the Google Workspace Marketplace and also available here as a web application.
The transfer of one or several files falls into the free quota of the above mentioned utilities.
