In case you would like to transfer a domain name from one registrar to another, you’ll need a special transfer code, which may be called by multiple names – an EPP key, an Auth code, a domain password, and so on. All these names denote one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner obtains from the current domain registrar and gives to the new one during the order procedure. Without a valid code, a domain transfer cannot be started and this is one of the safety measures against unauthorized transfers used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For greater security, the code includes numbers and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so if you’d like to transfer one of your domain names, you have to provide the new registrar company with the correct code.
