How do I transfer a domain name to Buzinessware?

Step 1: At your current registrar, unlock your domain name. This can typically be done through the control panel; otherwise, contact customer support for assistance and instructions.

Step 2: Purchase a transfer with the Buzinessware registrar.

Step 3: You will next receive an email from your Buzinessware registrar with an authorization code. Follow the instructions to confirm the transfer. In many cases, you can use the authorization code in Step 2 when you initially request the transfer.

Step 4: Buzinessware registrar will notify the current registrar to transfer the domain name. Registrars are typically given 5 days to return communication; otherwise the contacting registrar will assume the transfer has been rejected. When you receive a request for authorization from your current registrar to release the domain name, confirm the release.

Your Buzinessware registrar will notify you once the domain name has been successfully transferred. The entire process typically takes 1 to 10 days, depending on the registrar 

Before you proceed with a domain name transfer request, make sure:

  • The domain has been registered for at least 60 days with your current registrar. If you just recently registered or transferred your domain name, you will need to wait 60 days before applying for transfer.
  • The admin contact e-mail is valid, as this is where most registrars will send the confirmation of transfer and the domain “AuthInfo” code.
  • Domain name is not in protected/locked status.
  • Domain name is not in redemption status.
  • Domain name is not locked for either non-payment or at the owner’s request.
  • Domain name is not currently in dispute.
  • Domain name has not been deleted.

If you have any questions about the domain transfer process or policy, you can contact your registrar or email ICANN at  [email protected].
