In case you would like to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you’ll need a special domain authorization code, which may be referred to by many names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth code, a domain name password, etc. All these names refer to one and the same thing – a code that the domain registrant receives from the current domain registrar and provides to the new one at the time of the order. Without a genuine code, a domain transfer procedure cannot be initiated and this is one of the safety measures against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even greater security, the code includes numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you need to supply the new domain name registrar with the correct code.
