What to know before starting
Will transferring my domain move my website?
No. The transfer changes who manages the domain registration; DNS can continue pointing to the existing website and email services.
Do I need an authorisation code?
Many domain extensions require a transfer or EPP code from the current registrar.
How long does a transfer take?
Timing depends on the domain extension, current registrar and how quickly confirmation requests are approved.
