Domain name transfer time and key steps
DomainCn
Domain migration, that is, transferring a domain from one registrar to another, can be done for a variety of reasons, such as seeking better service, more affordable prices, or more efficient centralized management. This process involves several key steps, each of which has a corresponding time period.
Preparation phase (1 - 3 days)
When preparing to migrate a domain, first make sure that the domain is unlocked. If the domain is locked, you need to contact the current registrar to unlock it. At the same time, obtain the authorization code provided by the current registrar, which is the key to migrating the domain. In addition, carefully check and update the registration information of the domain name to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the information to avoid information problems that affect the migration process.
Initiate migration (a few hours to 1 day)
When the preparations are ready, you can submit a migration request on the website of the new registrar. During the submission process, you need to accurately fill in the authorization code and other relevant information obtained from the original registrar. After the submission is successful, the new registrar will start processing the migration application.
Migration review (5 - 7 days)
After submitting the migration request, the new registrar will review the migration request. At the same time, the old registrar will also receive information about the migration and send a confirmation email to the domain name owner. Be sure to check and confirm the email in time. Failure to confirm in time may cause migration delays.
Complete the migration (1 day)
Once the review is passed, the domain name migration is declared complete. At this time, the domain name owner will receive a confirmation notice from the new registrar. However, it should be noted that after the migration is completed, due to differences in DNS settings between different registrars, DNS settings need to be reconfigured to ensure that the website can operate normally. If you encounter problems such as domain name lock, domain name expiration, failure to confirm emails in time, and improper DNS settings during the migration process, you should take corresponding measures to solve them in time, such as unlocking the domain name, renewing expired domain names, timely confirming emails, and correctly configuring DNS, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the domain name migration.
