Domain name transfers

We can currently accept the transfer of the following domains

.com, .net, .org, .cc, .info, .biz, .us, .gg, .je, .co.gg, .co.je, .cn, .ca, .co.uk, .plc.uk, .ltd.uk, .me.uk, and .org.uk. All CentralNic domains such .uk.com. .gb.net, .eu.com, etc can also be transferred.

Transferring your domain name to us extends your registration term by another period (1 or 2 years depending on the domain). Once transferred, you can benefit from our low renewal fees, domain management tools, and fast, friendly support.

If this is a non-UK domain name, before initiating the transfer, please ensure your domain is not 'locked' by your current registrar (we cannot request the transfer until the name is unlocked). You should make sure the WHOIS administrative contact is correct as email may be sent to that address for transfer authorisation. If no-one responds, the transfer may not complete. Please note that some registrars may not allow the transfer of domains less than 60 days old. If you want to transfer your UK domain away from Microtech to another TAG holder, please go here.

Enter names of domains to transfer Options (none required for normal transfer)

Automatically change name servers
This will change the name servers to Microtech's once the transfer is complete. If using this option you should ensure that your dns zones are ready for these domains now.

Lock domains after transfer
Not applicable to all domains. Prevents unauthorised transfer. We strongly recommend you lock your domains to prevent the possibility of authorised transfers.

Suspended transfer submissionhelp
Not applicable to .UK domains. If you would like to enter your domain transfer order now and have us wait until the domain is unlocked and the correct domain contact is showing in whois, enter the domain contact email address here. Your transfer will not be submitted until this contact is shown in whois and the domain is unlocked.

Transfer of .COM, .NET, .ORG, .INFO, .BIZ, .US, and .CN
These domains use the EPP method of transfer. As well as seeking authorisation from the domains owners, you need to provide an 'authorisation key' to authorise the transfer. This can be obtained from your current registrar.

Transfer of NON UK domain names
For transfer of domains ending in anything other than .uk, the current admin and technical contact for the domain will receive an email asking for authorisation to transfer the domain. It is important that one of the contacts reply to the email so that your transfer can be completed.

Transfer of UK domain names
For UK domains the IPS tag must be changed to 'MICROTECH'. Your current ISP/registrar will be familiar with this procedure and further details will be given on the following pages. Don't worry, It's nowhere near as technical as it sounds! Transferring your name to us will not change where your DNS points to so your sites should continue to run as they are now if you already have sites configured. If your domain is currently held with UK2, UK2.NET, Namezero, or Freenetname, you may not be able to transfer it without paying them a 'transfer' fee. You can change the TAG without the involvement of your current ISP/Registrar via Nominet for a small fee.

If you would prefer to pay for your UK or GG/JE domains when they come up for renewal rather than as part of this transfer process, please tick here Ticking this box will result in us sending you a renewal invitation when the domain is due to be renewed instead of us renewing it as part of the transfer. This makes it completely free of charge to move a UK/gg/je domain to Microtech. Please note that if you decide to change your TAG away from Microtech before the domain is renewed, you will have to pay the full standard transfer fee before we can release it.
