I assume this question is not about transferring everything from an old 3DS to a new one, because that is a different story. That basically turns your new 3DS into your old one and everything is transferred (including your Nintendo ID and all purchase info) so there should be no problems with everything working in that case. But if this is just about playing your DLC game on one 3DS then taking your cartridge out and then trying to play it on a different one...
If you play a game on a 3DS that has the DLC installed and save that file on your cartridge, then put it into another 3DS that does NOT have the DLC on it, you will not be able to open the file at all. Calros told me this directly on the XSEED forums when I was asking about how the DLC would work with multiple copies. The DLC will work with everything you play on a single 3DS, digital or physical, but if you have a DLC file, it won't open on a 3DS that does not have the DLC installed, not at all.
Which probably doesn't matter to most people unless they have 2 3DSes like I do, or if they played their copy of the game on a borrowed 3DS or something.
Oh but you can still use multiplayer with anyone you could before, regardless of who does or does not have the DLC. I asked that one too, just to make sure.
