For a seamless transfer of registrar, it’s imperative to have the following requirements ready in order to transfer the domain to Hostinger.
- You must own the domain or be authorized to transfer it
- Obtain and double-check the Authorization/EPP code (case-sensitive)
- Domain should not be less than 60 days old and not under the redemption period
- Privacy of the domain should be removed
- Transfer locked should be turned off
- Ensure that the domain’s contact data is up to date
- Log in to the Hostinger account where you want to have the domain transferred.
- Go to the left navigation bar and select “Transfer Domain.”
- Enter the domain name you would like to transfer and then click “Transfer.”
- Proceed with the payment. You will be redirected back to the list of your domains, and the domain should now show in your hPanel with a pending status
- Click on the domain and enter the contact details you wish to be inherited by the domain
- Enter the EPP code and click “Transfer Domain.”
- Once done, the transfer process should start, and you will be routed to the screen below. An email will also be sent asking you to confirm the domain transfer.
- You can check the domain transfer status by going back to the domain dashboard page.
- If an error is encountered during the transfer process (e.g., domain’s authorization code is incorrect), you can go back to the domain dashboard and click on the domain
- Check on the status and update accordingly. If the error is with the authorization code, click “update EPP,” enter the updated code, and click “Update.”
- The transfer process will restart automatically
