When to move wild primroses

I move mine whenever inclination strikes. The primroses are laid back about it. Many are given to the village rewilding project.

It is pretty hard to discombobulate (oops, sorry for the word choice, @BenCotto ) a wild primrose.

It's sometimes easier to lift a small clump with several plants in it, and then re site that, rather than individual plants, when they're tiny. Then you can divide a clump at a later date once it's a good size.
I presume it's P.nivalis we're discussing?

They flower on and off all year round here, and I have them in various sites. Sun isn't a problem if they're happy below ground

If you dig them out away from the roots, they won't even know you've moved them
