Initiate the outbound Transfer at WebHosting Network Services
The process of transferring a .UK domain name from WebHosting Network Services to another Registrar is slightly different compared to the process for domain names under other extensions. In case of a .UK domain name, the outbound Transfer needs to be initiated at WebHosting Network Services, instead of the New Registrar.
NoteThe process listed below can be initiated only from within the Customer Control Panel, since the Customer is considered to be the owner of the domain name.
Once you have determined whether your .UK domain name can be transferred, you need to initiate the outbound Transfer at WebHosting Network Services:
-
Login to your Customer Control Panel. See details
-
Search for the .UK domain name that you wish to Transfer away and go to the Order Details view. See details
-
Click the Transfer Out link.
-
You need to provide the Tag of the New Registrar to whom you wish to Transfer your .UK domain name. A Tag is an alphanumeric string used to identify a .UK Registrar. The Tag can be obtained by contacting the New Registrar/Service Provider under whom you wish to have your domain name transferred.
-
Click the Transfer-out Domain button to initiate the Transfer away process.
You will receive a notification via email from WebHosting Network Services, once your .UK domain name has been successfully transferred to the New Registrar.
