You can transfer your domain to Always Amber from another registrar. You'll need to prepare your domain name at your current registrar before starting the process on our website.
Some important notes about domain transfers:
- The transfer of domains can take some time to complete. While we make every effort to facilitate your transfer, we cannot be held responsible for delays due to errors made by third parties.
- .ie domains will usually transfer within one day, as long as a valid Authorisation Code (or EPP code) is provided.
- .com domain transfers can take up to 7 days to complete. Please ensure that you have allowed for this when transferring a domain approaching its renewal date.
- Expired domains and domains registered within the previous 60 days cannot be transferred.
- .co.uk domains will usually transfer within one day, however, you should allow up to 7 days.
- In most cases transferring your domain will also add +1 year to your current registration period.
- Transferring your domain does not transfer your email accounts and/or website content. Nor does it automatically update or change the DNS/Nameservers records for the domain.
