IT IS ESSENTIAL TO READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE REQUESTING THE TRANSFER

Before transferring your domain, you must be sure that you have prepared it to be transferred. If your domain hasn’t been properly prepared, the transfer will fail.

  • You must verify and be completely sure that the domain administrator’s email address is correct. Once the transfer is started, we’ll write to that email to request permission for the domain transfer. The person who receives this email must approve the transfer. If the holder of the domain’s administrative email doesn’t approve the transfer, the domain cannot be transferred.
  • You must be sure that the domain is not locked. If the domain is locked, it’s necessary to unlock it before requesting the transfer. If the transfer is requested while the domain is locked, the transfer will fail.
  • You must have the transfer code. To start the transfer process, we’ll need the code that authorizes the transfer to be carried out. You must obtain this code from your current registrar. Without this code, it’s not possible to start the domain transfer.

To obtain the information for points 1 and 2, you can visit the website: https://www.domaintools.com

Type your domain name in the Whois Lookup field and click the submit button.

The information shown indicates both whether the domain is locked and the administrative contact’s email.

Note: Domains that fall into the following categories cannot be transferred:

  1. Expired domains. You must first renew the domain with your current registrar and then transfer it.
  2. Domains registered less than 60 days ago. You’ll need to wait until the registration is at least 60 days old before you can start a domain transfer.

Once the requirements for transferring the domain are met, you can start the process from our website.
