For secular clerics, transfer of enrollment to the correct church sui iuris, a history of praxis in that rite (and preferably in that particular church sui iuris), and the bishop’s permission.
For monastic clerics, add enrollment in the monastery, and the permission of one’s superior.
In both cases, a devotion of years is expected.
As for cross-church but same rite, I’ve not met any, but I’ve heard of several Ruthenians going Ukrainian.
