.uk Domain Name Transfer Help

Transferring a .uk domain name can be a bit confusing if you’ve never done it before. This page will provide all the information you need to ensure you successfully transfer your domain name to us.

Transferring a .uk domain name is a push-pull process.

Push

Before you place the order transfer at our website you need to do some preparation at the company you will be moving the domain name away from (referred to as the ‘loosing registrar’).

You need to change the IPS Tag. To do this you must retag the IPS to ENOM.

That’s all one word, all upper case.

Pull

Go to our Transfer In page, type your domain name into the “Begin Transfer In” box and click Lookup Domain.

You should then go through the order process to customise your domain and pay. Once you have paid the transfer will then take place.

Complete

And that’s it! As soon as the loosing registrar releases the domain name to us you will be able to manage it through the Account Control Panel, this usually takes about 5 days.
