2 min readAn original planning guide. Use the linked primary documentation for platform details and the supported procedure for your environment.
Verify ownership and eligibility
Use the current registrar's account and transfer instructions to review the domain's status and any applicable restrictions.
Inventory linked services
Record authoritative nameservers, DNS hosting, email, and website services. Ask whether any bundled service changes when the domain leaves.
Protect transfer credentials
Request the authorization code through the documented workflow and deliver it only through the receiving registrar's approved process.
Define completion checks
Confirm the receiving account, registration details, nameservers, renewal settings, and working website and email once the transfer completes.
Worked scenario
See the plan in practice.
The website can remain on its current host while registration moves, but DNS bundled with the old registrar deserves an explicit continuity check.
