Hi,
How long does it take to move a domain from one registrar to another? What is the process?
It takes "no time". By that I mean a few hours, less than 1 day. 1. You notify registrar2 of your intention to transfer the domain to them:) You sign the agreement, etc. 2. You clear ALL outstanding with registrar1 and tell them to transfer the domain to registrar2 3. Registrar1 one proceeds to login to the registry and changes the Admin Handle for the domain to that of registrar2 and commits. 4. Transfer Done! 5. Registrar2 does the rest of what is required to get the domain functional. This step 5 is something the registrars need to consult on and accomplish even before step 3, in order to ensure that transfer does not affect services - normally DNS matters. Yours sincerely, A former registrar. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.
