The Domain Transfer Process

GTLD (.com, .net, .org, and most others) Most other domains are considered ‘GTLDs’ – this is short for ‘Global Top Level Domains’, so are not country specific. The transfer process for these domains is slightly different and relies on an authorization code or EPP key. When you order a GTLD transfer, you pay the same as a 1 year registration or renewal because as part of the transfer process, an additional year is added on to the domain expiration date.

The steps to transfer a GTLD domain are:-

Step 1 – Unlock the domain with your current provider

Step 2 – Obtain the EPP key (sometimes called an authorization code) from your current provider

Step 3 – Order the domain transfer from Vpsux – https://www.vpsux.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&domain=transfer

Step 4 – Once the order is paid for, you’ll receive an email to the admin contact on the domain you’re transferring. There’ll be a link to click and this is where you need to approve the domain transfer to Vpsux.

Step 5 – Once you’ve approved the transfer, it can take several days for the transfer to go through (depending on the registry it’s coming from), but you’ll receive an email from Vpsux once the transfer is completed.

Once the transfer is completed, you can then manage the domain from www.vpsux.com/clients under ‘Domains’.
