How do I transfer a .co.uk or .org.uk domain? What is involved in a .co.uk or .org.uk transfer?
Please note that .UK domains don't use authorization codes or registrar locks.
Incoming Transfers
Transferring .UK domains into our system is a two step process. Please do the following:
- Contact the current registrar and request that they change the IPS TAG on your domain to "ENOM".
- Initiate the domain transfer from here
It does not matter the order in which the steps are completed, however, if you initiate the transfer first, you must submit the retag request to the losing registrar within one week. If initiating the retag request to the losing registrar first, you must initiate your transfer by either the 8th of current month or the 8th of the following month, whichever is closest to the current date.
What fees are involved?
At the time the transfer order is submitted in our system, it is also renewed for 1 year at the current renewal price.
Outgoing Transfers
Transferring .UK domains away from our system is a two step process. Please do the following:
- open a ticket and provide us with the IPS tag for the new registrar.
- Initiate the transfer on the gaining registrar's system.
It does not matter the order in which the steps are completed, however, if you initiate the transfer with the gaining registrar first, you must submit the ticket within one week. If submitting the TAG change request with us first, you must initiate your transfer with the gaining registrar by either the 8th of current month or the 8th of the following month, whichever is closest to the current date.
