In case you want to transfer a domain name from one company to another, you’ll need a unique transfer code, which may be referred to by different names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain password, and so on. All these names designate the very same thing – a code that the domain name registrant receives from the present registrar and provides to the new one during the order procedure. Without an authentic code, a transfer procedure cannot be initiated and this is one of the security measures against unsolicited transfer attempts used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For even greater safety, the code contains numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you need to provide the new registrar company with the right code.
