Hi,
From previous AD migration guide we found:
After you have migrated all user, group, and computer accounts, you should remove ADMT.
We don’t find such sentence form ADMT 3.1 or 3.2 guides, but we still get some information show that we can uninstall ADMT form target server.
So you can uninstall ADMT after you make sure the migration is success complete.
Complete post-migration task:
- Examine Migration Logs for Errors
- Accessing ADMT log files
- Verify Group Types
- Translate Security on Member Servers
- Decommission the Source Domain
For more information please refer to following MS articles:

After the complete migration? Yes.
I always recommend creating a report of SID and SIDHistory before you remove the SIDHistory from the migrated object.
