How long do domain name registrar transfers take?

Last Updated: July 2, 2007 3:11 PM

Transferring a domain name often takes five days or less. There are two steps you can take now to reduce the transfer time:

  • Verify that the email address for the domain name's administrative contact at your current registrar is correct. This is the address we are required to contact when requesting approval for the transfer.
  • Advise the administrative contact that the domain name is being transferred and to expect our request for approval.
