While an EPP or Auth code is needed for transferring most domains, some TLDs, such as .UK, have different requirements that need to be taken into consideration for successful domain transfer.
Step 1 – Check-up Before You Start the Transfer
Before you initiate a domain transfer, make sure that:
Your domain name is active
You have full ownership of the domain name
Your domain was registered more than 60 days ago
Your domain hasn't been transferred within the last 60 days
Then, proceed with the next step 👇
Step 2 – Initiate the Transfer
To initiate the transfer:
Open the Hostinger Transfer Domain page (or Transfer Domain if you already have a Hostinger account), insert your domain name, and click on Transfer
Proceed with the payment
Choose whether you want to keep your current nameservers or use Hostinger nameservers
Once you finish the order, the transfer process will be initiated. You will receive an email regarding the transfer – make sure to confirm it.
Step 3 – Change the IPS Tag
After initiating your domain transfer, you need to change the domain's IPS tag to the following value:
REGISTRAR-EU
You can do so by contacting your current domain provider 😊
