How Long Does a Domain Transfer Take to Complete?
For a transfer to complete, it must be accepted by the administrator, who has up to 5 days to do so. After that, it can take up to 7 days to finish.
IT’S HARD TO PIN DOWN.
For a transfer to be completed, it must be accepted by its administrator. The administrator has a maximum of 5 days to accept the transfer.
From the moment the administrator accepts the transfer, some transfers complete in less than an hour, while others take 7 days.
That’s the range. That’s why we always ask that, if you want to transfer a domain, you do so with plenty of time. You should allow at least 7 days for the transfer to complete.
For the transfer to succeed, keep in mind that you’ll need two things:
-
To have the transfer code
-
The domain’s administrator must approve the transfer.
