If you wish to transfer a domain from one domain registrar to another, you will need a special code, which may be referred to by many names – an EPP authentication code, an Auth-Info code, a domain name password, etc. All these names denote the exact same thing – a code that the domain registrant obtains from the present domain name registrar and gives to the new one during the order process. Without a valid code, a transfer process cannot be started and this is one of the protection measures against unsolicited transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even greater safety, the code contains numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you would like to transfer one of your domains, you need to supply the new domain name registrar with the right code.
