Sometimes you may want or even need to transfer your domain to another registrar’s account. Below it is shown how to transfer your domain to TBC-Hosting. It is quite a simple process and all you need to do is follow the guideline.
Transferring a domain
If you already have a domain that is registered on another registrar’s account, you can transfer it to TBC-Hosting. The billing and administration of the domain also will be moved to TBC-Hosting in this case.
You can start the domain transfer process when you first sign up as a TBC-Hosting customer, or at a later time as an existing customer. In either case, to make sure the transfer process goes as smoothly as possible:
- The domain must be unlocked. If you need assistance unlocking your domain, contact the domain's current registrar.
- The domain's contact information must be current. A domain name record contains an Administrative Contact and a Technical Contact. Both of these contacts can be the same person, but at least one of them should be you. When a domain transfer request is initiated, the Administrative Contact and Technical Contact are notified by e-mail.
- You must obtain an EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol) code from the current registrar or hosting company. This code is an identifying number for the domain that indicates you are authorized to transfer it. In some cases, there may be a time delay between when the domain is initially registered, and when it can be transferred.
- If you have a reseller, VPS, or dedicated server account, you can use your own custom name servers, or TBC-Hosting's name servers. Shared web hosting customers should use TBC-Hosting's name servers.
After you start the domain transfer process, TBC-Hosting sends a domain transfer request to the domain's Administrative and Technical contacts. The amount of time to complete the domain transfer depends in large part on how quickly these contacts approve the transfer request. If the Administrative or Technical contact approves the authorization promptly, the domain may be transferred in as little as 2 to 4 days.
Unfortunately, we are unable to tell you how exactly the transfer process will go with other registrars. However, this kind of process can’t be much different as most registrars use the same or similar programs and policies.
Also, if you are transferring your domain not from one registrar to another, but from one account to another (given that both accounts are from the same registrar), you should contact your registrar’s support team.
