<p><b>New page</b></p><div>You can move a domain you've registered elsewhere to Acenet. A transfer usually adds a year to the registration.<br />
<br />
== Before you start ==<br />
<br />
At your current registrar:<br />
* '''Unlock''' the domain (turn off the registrar or transfer lock).<br />
* Get the domain's '''authorization code''' (also called the EPP code or auth code).<br />
* Make sure the domain's contact email address is one you can receive mail at, because some registrars send a confirmation email.<br />
<br />
Domains can't be transferred within 60 days of being registered or transferred, or within 60 days of some contact changes.<br />
<br />
== Request the transfer ==<br />
<br />
'''1.''' Log in to the [https://billing.ace-host.net Client Area].<br />
<br />
'''2.''' Click '''Domains''', then '''Transfer Domains to Us'''.<br />
<br />
'''3.''' Enter the '''Domain Name''', for example example.com, and the '''Authorization Code'''.<br />
<br />
'''4.''' Click '''Add to Cart''' and complete the checkout.<br />
<br />
After the order is paid, we start the transfer. It usually takes up to 5 to 7 days. Your current registrar may send you an email asking you to approve the transfer, which can speed it up.<br />
<br />
Your website and email keep working during the transfer, as long as you don't change the nameservers at the same time. To change them afterwards, see [[Change your domain's nameservers]].<br />
