In case you want to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you will need a unique authorization code, which may be referred to by various names – an EPP authorization code, an AuthInfo code, a domain password, and so on. All these names denote the same thing – a code that the domain registrant receives from the current registrar and provides to the new one at the time of the order. Without an authentic code, a domain transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the protection mechanisms against unapproved transfers used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For greater security, the code contains digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you need to present the new registrar with the correct code.
