Domain Transfers
Jul 03, 2026
Transferring your domain to a new registrar allows you to consolidate your management under one provider.
Before You Begin
- Ensure your domain is unlocked at your current registrar.
- Obtain your Authorization Code (EPP code) from your current registrar.
Transferring a Domain
- Request an EPP code from your current registrar.
- Provide this code to your new registrar.
- Confirm the transfer via the email sent to the domain owner.
- Wait for the transfer process to complete (usually 5–7 days).
Best Practices
- Ensure your domain is not within 60 days of initial registration, as most registrars prevent transfers during this period.
