Moving your domain between 123 Reg accounts
If you'd like to transfer a domain from one 123 Reg account to another, you can do this straight from your Control Panel.
Please see the following Support article for step-by-step instructions on how to complete this: How can I move domain names between 123 Reg accounts?
Frequently asked questions
Why should I transfer my domains to 123 Reg?
With over 25 years of experience, we pride ourselves on delivering fantastic service with award-winning customer support.
We don’t believe in nasty surprises either, which is why we show our transfer prices upfront. We even offer free transfers for all UK-specific domain names like .uk, .co.uk, .org.uk and .me.uk.
How do I transfer my domains to 123 Reg?
Just follow these steps to get your domain transferred:
1) Start by ‘unlocking’ the domain name that you wish to transfer with your current provider. Depending on its extension, you may also need to get its authorisation code. For details on how to do all this, please read the following article: Transferring third-party domain names to 123 Reg.
2) Enter your domain into our search tool and select the option ‘Transfer my domain’ within the results.
3) Continue to the checkout to submit your transfer fee. Even if you’re eligible for a free transfer, you will need to complete this step, although you won’t be charged anything.
4) After you’ve done this, you’ll receive an email from the appropriate registry, asking you to approve the transfer. Follow the instructions within this email and your domain will be transferred to us shortly.
If, however, the extension you'd like to transfer isn't listed, you won' be able to transfer that domain name to us.
Need to transfer multiple domains? You can transfer up to 500 domains to 123 Reg at once with our bulk domain transfer tool. Simply access the Domain Control Centre within your 123 Reg account and then you can either enter each domain one-by-one, paste them in or upload them in a .CSV, .XLS or .XLSX file. If you’re not sure how to access our Domain Control Centre, please read the following article: How can I perform a bulk domain transfer?
How long does a domain transfer take?
Domain transfers usually take 5 to 7 days to complete. You can track the progress of your transfers from your 123 Reg Control Panel.Â
For a better understanding of what each status means, please read the following article: Understanding Domain Transfers
How much does it cost to transfer a domain?
This will depend on your domain name’s extension. For example, if you wish to transfer a UK-specific domain, like .co.uk, .me.uk or .uk, then this will be completely free.
For all other extensions, there will likely be a price tag attached, which can vary from £4.99 to £100+.
Can I transfer multiple domains at once?
Yes, you can transfer multiple domains to 123 Reg at the same time. To do this, simply access the Domain Portfolio in your 123 Reg Control Panel. From there, you can select all the domains you wish to transfer and follow the same process for each one. It's a quick way to move multiple domains over without having to do them one by one .
Do I need to renew my domain during the transfer?
No, your domain won’t need to be renewed during the transfer. However, if your domain is close to expiring, we recommend renewing it with your current provider before starting the transfer, just to avoid any issues.
Can I transfer my domain if I have active services like website hosting or email with my current provider?
Yes, transferring your domain won’t affect any services that are linked to it, like website hosting or email, as long as you don’t change the nameservers during the transfer process. If you plan to change providers for hosting or email services, that’s something you’ll need to arrange separately.
Will transferring my domain affecting my ranking on search engines?
Not necessarily, no. As long as you follow the instructions outlined on this page and in our Support articles, you shouldn’t experience any change in your rankings.
Will my website or email be affected when I transfer my domain?
No, any services associated with your domain will not be affected, as we do not change its nameservers during the transfer process.
What are the limitations when transferring a domain?
Due to industry-wide regulations, you will not be able to transfer any domains that have been registered within the last 60 days or are within 7 days of expiring.
