In case you wish to transfer a domain from one company to another, you’ll need a unique domain name authorization code, which may be called by various names – an EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a domain name password, and so on. All these names denote the very same thing – a code that the domain name owner obtains from the current domain registrar and provides to the new one upon ordering. Without a genuine code, a domain name transfer process cannot be initiated and this is one of the protection measures against unwanted transfers used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For even greater safety, the code includes numbers and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you wish to transfer one of your domains, you have to provide the new company with the right code.
