Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful answers about transfer eligibility, authorization codes, processing times, DNS settings, and domain management.
Your domain should normally be active, unlocked, and eligible for transfer under its registry rules. Recently registered or recently transferred domains may be subject to a transfer restriction. Your current registrar can confirm the domain's status.
An EPP or authorization code is a transfer password supplied by your current registrar. It helps verify that you are authorized to move the domain to another provider.
Transfer time varies by domain extension, registry, and current registrar. Some transfers complete quickly after approval, while others may take several days. You can monitor the transfer status from your client account.
A registrar transfer does not normally require changing your nameservers. Your website and email should continue using their existing DNS settings, provided those settings remain unchanged and the connected services stay active.
A transfer lock may be enabled for security, or the domain may currently be subject to a registry transfer restriction. Sign in to your existing registrar to check the lock status or contact them for assistance.
Eligibility for an expired domain depends on the extension, registry status, and current registrar. You may need to renew or restore the domain with the existing provider before it can be transferred.
Transfer pricing depends on the domain extension. The current transfer price and any applicable registration extension will be displayed during ordering before you complete payment.
The domain will appear in your HostViber client account, where you can manage supported nameserver, DNS, renewal, and security settings. We recommend confirming the domain lock, contact details, and renewal date after completion.
