How long does a domain name transfer take?

Domain name transfer times vary depending on the registrar, extension and response time of parties involved.

A large percentage of transfers associated with domain name acquisitions can take less than a day. However, sometimes you have to wait 5 days for a domain name transfer to complete.

Some buyers opt to accept an account change at the domain name’s current registrar. While this can certainly expedite gaining possession of a domain name, it can also sometimes result in an extended transfer lock period.

Can I transfer the domain name to my preferred registrar?

2020-12-09T07:30:50+00:00December 2nd, 2020|

Yes.

We work to ensure the domain name(s) acquired are transferred to your preferred registrar.

Most transactions allow for an immediate transfer to your preferred registrar, however some may take a little longer depending on factors such as:

  • The domain extension
  • Registrar policies
  • Registry policies

Note that a registrar transfer delay will almost never stop you from using the domain name, or getting possession. It just means you may have to hold the domain name at another registrar for a short time.
