Requirements

Transfer
Transferring a .download
- First check in WHOIS whether there's a transfer lock on the domain name. If your current registrar has set it, ask them to remove it.
- Request the transfer code from your current registrar and use it to start the transfer.
- The registry forwards the transfer request and automatically lets your current registrar know that the domain name is leaving.
- Your current registrar emails the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact too, about the transfer. This email often lets you approve or reject it.
- If you neither approve nor reject the transfer, it will be completed automatically after 5 days.
The transfer code
- You need a transfer code to transfer a .download domain. The registrant or administrative contact requests it from the current registrar.
- The code is 8 to 32 characters long and contains at least one letter, one number and one special character, such as ! $ % ? & @ * + - or :.
