Domain Transfer FAQ
Practical answers about transfer eligibility, DNS continuity, and live transfer pricing.
How long does a domain transfer take?
Most transfers complete within 5-7 business days. You'll receive email updates at each step, and our team is available 24/7 if you need assistance.
Do I need to unlock my domain at my current registrar?
Yes. You'll need to unlock your domain and obtain the EPP/authorization code from your current registrar before starting the transfer process.
Will my domain go down during the transfer?
No. Your domain remains active throughout the entire transfer process. There's no downtime, and your website and email continue working normally.
What if I transferred recently and want to transfer again?
You can transfer after 60 days from your last transfer. If your domain was recently transferred, contact our support team to check eligibility.
Do you offer a 1-year extension with transfers?
Absolutely! All domain transfers include a free 1-year renewal when you transfer to Avalon, effectively locking in your rate for longer.
Can I transfer multiple domains at once?
Yes. You can transfer multiple domains simultaneously. Just provide the EPP codes for each domain and we'll handle the rest.
Is WHOIS privacy included with transfers?
Yes. WHOIS privacy is included at no extra cost for eligible TLDs when you transfer to Avalon.
What if the transfer fails?
Transfers occasionally fail due to registrar issues or incorrect EPP codes. Our support team will help troubleshoot and retry at no charge.
Do I need to renew my domain after it transfers?
No. Your transfer includes a 1-year extension, so you won't need to renew immediately. We'll remind you before your new renewal date.
Can I keep my current nameservers?
Yes. After the transfer, you can keep or update your nameservers anytime from your control panel without any restrictions.
