To transfer your domain name(s) you should first login to your account to lock or unlock your domain name(s) and/or to obtain the EPP "AuthCode" which is required to transfer domains in an EPP registry (such as .org). Alternatively, you should contact your Primary Service Provider to have your domain name(s) locked or unlocked or to obtain the EPP "AuthCode." If your Primary Service Provider is unresponsive, you may contact us to have your domain name(s) locked or unlocked or to obtain the EPP "AuthCode." Only the registrant and the administrative contacts listed in the WHOIS information for a domain name may approve or deny a transfer request. Without limitation, domain names may not be transferred within 60 days of initial registration, within 60 days of a transfer, if there is a dispute regarding the identity of the domain name holder, if you are bankrupt, or if you fail to pay fees when due. We will follow the procedures for both gaining and loosing registrars as outlined in ICANN's transfer policies. Transfer requests typically take five business days to be processed. A transfer will not be processed if, during this time, the domain name registration expires. You may be required to resubmit a transfer request if there is a communication failure or other problem at either our end or at the registry.
