Frequently asked questions
Domain transfers are charged by the name and at a flat fee at Host Sonu, so you pay nothing beyond the initial cost and the ICANN fee, where appropriate. We also let you keep any time left on your current registrations AND throw in a free year of registration for transfer.**
Domains can be transferred almost any time. However, ICANN prohibits domain transfers within 60 days of registration or prior transfer. Some domain extensions are not subject to the 60-day lock.
Absolutely. On your Transfers page, you’ll find your incoming transfers, as well as advice on how to resolve outstanding transfer issues, if there are any. For more information on how to check the status of your transfers, check this help article.
Upon the expiration of your domain, you will be charged annually to maintain the domain. The price is the then-current annual retail price applicable to the domain.
Most domain transfers take 5–7 days to complete. The time it takes varies depending on the extension. For details on transferring country-code domains, check this help article.
Transferring domains in bulk is simple.
1. Unlock each of the domain names you’d like to transfer with your current registrar.
2. Get an authorization (also known as an EPP code or transfer key) from your current registrar. This isn’t necessary in all cases, such as when transferring country-code domain (ccTLDs). If the authorization codes aren’t shown in your account manager, ask your current registrar to email them to you.
3. Verify contact information on your domain name. The administrator's contact information may be used by your current registrar during the transfer process.
