Before proceeding with the transfer of your .UK domain name, you are advised to confirm if your domain name can be transferred.

The process of transferring a .UK domain name from another registrar is different as compared to the process for domain names under other extensions. In the case of a .UK domain name, the inbound transfer needs to be initiated at the current registrar’s end.

Once you have determined whether your .UK domain name can be transferred, you need to follow the steps below:

Once you’ve made your payment, it should be safe to change the IPS tag of your domain at your current registrar. It’s very important, however, not to enter the IPS tag until you’re sure you’ve completed the transfer process and all of the below steps correctly:

1. Log in to your client area if you are already registered.
2. Click on Domain Transfer You can register while checking out if you are not registered.
3. Now, enter the domain name you wish to transfer.
4. Leave the EPP code / Auth code blank just by putting a space.
5. Enter the name and address of the new domain owner / current domain owner.
6. Fill up the required fields for .UK domain registration.
7. Select the registrant contact for this domain name. You may select from the available list of contacts or add a new contact.
8. Next, select the check box to agree to the associated product agreement(s).
9. Click the Confirm Order button. The domain name will then be transferred within your client area.
10. Once your payment and Purchase are successful, you will receive an email with a transfer notice from HZMFR

NOTE:

• Unused contacts (except default contacts) that were created more than six months ago are archived. Archived contacts will not appear in the List of Contacts, will not be searchable, and will not be available for selection during domain name transfers.
• The identity of the registrant’s contact’s UK domain name must not be changed during the transfer process. You may modify the Identity once the domain name has been transferred to hzmfr by referring to the process listed at https://www.nominet.org.uk/registrants/maintain/transfer/chargeable/.
