Overview

Transferring your domain name consolidates your billing, renewals, and technical management in one unified dashboard alongside your hosting services.

Preparation Checklist (At Your Current Registrar)

Before placing a transfer request, ensure the following steps are completed with your current provider:

  1. Check 60-Day Lock: Generic domains (.com, .net, .org) cannot be transferred if they were registered or previously transferred within the last 60 days (per ICANN regulations).

  2. Unlock the Domain: Ensure the domain status is set to "Unlocked" or "Active" rather than "Registrar-Lock" or "Transfer Prohibited."

  3. Disable WHOIS Privacy: Temporarily disable WHOIS ID protection or private registration so the administrative contact email is reachable.

  4. Obtain the EPP / Authorization Code: Request your domain's transfer authorization code (also referred to as an EPP code or Auth-Info).

  5. Update Admin Email: Confirm you have access to the administrative contact email address listed on the domain record.

Submitting the Transfer in the Client Area

  1. Go to the ClickHere2 website and navigate to Domains > Transfer Domain Names.

  2. Enter your domain name and provide the EPP/Auth Code.

  3. Complete the checkout process.

  4. Once submitted, approve any confirmation emails sent by the registry or your former registrar.

Transfer Timelines

  • gTLDs (.com, .net, .org, etc.): Standard registry completion takes approximately 5 to 7 days.

  • Special ccTLDs (such as .sg or .uk): May follow country-specific transfer mechanisms (such as verifying a Singpass registry request for .sg or changing the IPS Tag to our registrar for .uk).
