Domain Transfer Process

The process of transferring a domain from one registrar to another typically follows these steps:

1. Verify Eligibility for Transfer

Ensure the domain is not within 60 days of registration or a previous transfer, as domains can't be transferred during this period.

Ensure the domain is not locked or on hold for any other reason.

2. Update Domain Contact Information

Make sure that the domain's administrative contact email is correct. This is essential as the transfer process often requires verification via email.

3. Unlock the Domain

Log into your current domain registrar’s control panel.

Look for the option to unlock the domain. A locked domain cannot be transferred.

4. Obtain the Authorization Code (EPP Code)

Request an EPP code (also known as an Auth code) from your current registrar. This is a unique key that is required to authorize the transfer.

5. Initiate the Transfer with the New Registrar

Go to the registrar where you want to transfer the domain and initiate the transfer process.

Provide the EPP code when prompted.

Confirm any verification emails that the new registrar sends.

6. Confirm Transfer with Old Registrar

The old registrar may send a confirmation request via email, asking if you approve the transfer. Make sure to respond if required.

7. Wait for Transfer to Complete

The domain transfer technique usually takes between 5-7 days. During this time, your internet site and emails should stay operational if the DNS settings are not changed.

8. Verify DNS Settings

After the transfer, check the DNS settings to ensure they remain pointed to the correct server. If necessary, update the DNS settings through the new registrar.

If you are transferring a domain for Farmerr, ensure that all necessary steps, especially the domain unlock and obtaining the EPP code, are followed smoothly.
