Transfer a domain

Move an existing domain from another provider.

General procedure

1. At the current provider, unlock the domain (remove the transfer lock).
2. Request the auth code or EPP code.
3. At PawHost, transfer the domain with the code.
4. Confirm the transfer by email or with the old provider.

How long does it take?

For most extensions such as .com, .net or .org, an ICANN rule applies: the current provider has five calendar days to confirm the transfer. If it does not respond, the transfer is then automatically approved. The domain is then transferred within a few days. Overall, the process usually takes at most about seven days.
