If you’d like to transfer a domain name from one registrar company to another, you’ll need a special domain authorization code, which may be called by multiple names – an EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a domain password, and so on. All these names refer to one and the same thing – a code that the domain registrant gets from the present domain registrar and provides to the new one at the time of the order. Without a genuine code, a transfer procedure cannot be started and this is one of the security measures against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For greater safety, the code contains digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so if you wish to transfer one of your domain names, you have to supply the new domain registrar with the correct code.
