Home : Domain Centre : Transfer Authcode

If you want to transfer your .biz, .org, .info or .name domain, you will need to contact your current registrar and request the domain's Authorisation Code (also referred to as an auth code, Authinfo code or an EPP code). An authorisation code is usually a 6-16 character code assigned by the registrar. Authorisation codes are basically a password for the domain serving as an extra security measure. The auth codes ensure that only a domain owner can make domain transfers. The Registry requires the Auth Code so for .biz, .org, .info, or .name domains you will not be able to continue a transfer until you are able to get the Authorisation Code from your current registrar. We recommend obtaining your domain's Authorisation Code before initiating a domain transfer request.

This article describes how to obtain a transfer Authorisation Code (Auth Code) for .biz, .org, .info, or .name domain names from the most common registrars. Auth Codes are not required to transfer .com or .net domains. Perform a 'Whois Search' on the domain you wish to transfer. Look at the registrar field. This whois field will list your current domain registrar. Simply follow instructions listed below for that particular registrar to obtain your domain's authorisation code.

Is your registrar missing?

Check any help or knowledge base available on your current registrar's site. If your registrar does not have an article on Authorisation Codes or Auth Codes, email your existing registrar's customer support from the domain's administrative contact address and request your Authorisation Code or Auth Code for a particular domain. If you are told a .biz, .org, .info, or .name domain name does not have an authorisation code, then the registrar is mistaken. Registrars are contractually required to provide auth codes upon registrant request.
