Transfer Task 1: Verify that the domain name is eligible for transfer
To make sure your domain name can be transferred, check the following:
- The domain name has been registered for at least 60 days, and has been at Go Daddy for at least 60 days.
- The Registrant contact information has not changed for at least 60 days.
- The domain name is not in "client update prohibited" status.
Transfer Task 2: Update Administrative contact information
Before you can transfer a domain, the Administrative contact information (especially the email address) must be up-to-date at Go Daddy, because the Administrative contact receives the transfer request and okays the transfer.
Note: Go Daddy regards any changes to the Registrant contact information to be an "internal transfer" and will reject any transfer requests for 60 days after changes to the Registrant contact information. We recommend that you leave Registrant contact information as-is at Go Daddy. As long as either the Registrant or Admin email address is correct and you're using the Auto Verification method, you can make any needed changes once the domain name has successfully transferred to Dot Easy Australia Pty Ltd.
To update the Administrative contact at Go Daddy:
1. Log on to your account at GoDaddy.com.
2. On the "Domains" menu, click "My domain names".
3. Click the domain name you want to transfer.
4. If the Administrative contact information is incorrect, click the "edit" link next to the Administrative contact at the bottom of the page.
5. Update the Administrative contact information and click "OK".
Transfer Task 3: Obtain the authorisation code:
Some TLDs require that you provide an authorisation code for your domain name, to provide an extra level of assurance that the transfer request comes from an authorised source.
To transfer a .com, .net, .org, .info, or .biz domain name, obtain the authorization code from Go Daddy:
1. On the "My domain names" page, click the domain you want to transfer.
2. In the "Authorisation Code" section, click "Send by email".
3. Click "OK".
Transfer Task 4: Unlock the domain name
Before you can transfer a domain name away from Go Daddy, it must be unlocked. Locking is a feature most registrars offer to prevent unauthorised transfers (hijacking) of domain names.
To Unlock:
1. On the "My domain names" page, click the domain name you want to transfer.
2. In the "Settings" section, next to the "Locked" status, click "Change".
3. Select "Unlock" and click "OK".
Transfer Task 5: Transfer the domain name to Dot Easy Australia Pty Ltd:
Once you have prepared the domain name at Go Daddy, you're ready to transfer to Dot Easy Australia Pty Ltd.
If you are a registered client kindly logon to your client area then click on order or transfer, then proceed and provide the EPP or Authorisation code at the time of signing up.
