When you register a domain name, it is managed by a domain registrar, such as GetDotted. A domain transfer is where you move the management of your domain name between registrars. It does not change the ownership of the domain name, just the company with which your domain is held.
The transfer process differs between domain authorities, for example .uk domains require that the IPS tag is changed, however most other types require an authorisation code to initiate the transfer. Enter you domain into our handy domain transfer checker, which will clarify your domain type and will provide you with easy to follow step-by-step instructions.
The domain that you are looking to transfer must have been registered (with no changes to the registrant details) for at least 60 days. When a domain is registered or transferred it is subject to a 60-day lock period to protect against any unauthorised transfers.
The authorities for some domain types insist that domains must be renewed as part of the transfer process. You don't have to wait until expiry is due, the renewal will simply add a further 12 months on to the current registration period. Upon checking the eligibility to transfer your domains, we'll inform you if you're required to renew your domain as part of the transfer process.
.uk domains tend to be transferred the same day and can take anything between 30mins to a few hours. Other types of domain usually take between 5-7 days from the date that the transfer was initiated.
Please note that a smooth transfer to Freeola and GetDotted is subject to the cooperation of your current host.
No, you will still be the registered owner of the domain. If you wish to transfer your domain to someone else, you can do so by going to the My Domains section your MyFreeola Control Panel.
