If you would like to transfer a domain from one domain name registrar to another, you’ll need a unique transfer authorization code, which may be called by multiple names – an EPP authentication code, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names designate one and the same thing – a code that the domain name owner receives from the present domain name registrar and provides to the new one at the time of the order. Without a valid code, a domain transfer process cannot be initiated and this is one of the safety measures against unsanctioned transfers used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For greater security, the code comprises of numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you would like to transfer one of your domains, you need to supply the new registrar company with the correct code.
