• Request your domain's Authorisation Code from your current provider. You will be asked to confirm the Authorisation Code to authorise your domain name transfer.
• .EU domains do not have a lock unlike other gTLD domains..

Log in to your UKreg account and click 'Domain Names' in the control panel, then click on the 'Transfer' tab. Then just follow the on-screen instructions to add your domain name and initiate the transfer.

Important: You will be asked to provide contact details when submitting the transfer. The 'Registrant' contact should be that of the owner of the domain, unless you have written consent for these details to be those of someone else.

Shortly after submitting your transfer request, our international domain Registrar (OpenSRS) will send an email to the registrant contact email address which you have inputted into your UKreg control panel. The email instructs you to authorise the domain name transfer using the 'Authorisation code'. Simply follow the domain transfer instructions in this email to complete the move to UKreg.

The transfer must be authorised within five days of OpenSRS sending you the email. It may then take a few more days to complete the transfer - but it's worth it for the superb service and excellent value you'll get once your domain name is with us here at Fasthosts.

.eu domain name transfers are free and you'll keep any remaining months from the current registration period. We will automatically extend the registration for a further 12 months at our current rate when you transfer to us.
