In case you want to transfer a domain name from one domain name registrar to another, you’ll need a unique authorization code, which may be referred to by multiple names – an EPP authorization code, an Auth code, a domain name password, etc. All these names refer to the exact same thing – a code that the domain registrant gets from the current registrar and provides to the new one during the order procedure. Without an authentic code, a domain transfer procedure cannot be initiated and this is one of the safety measures against unauthorized transfer attempts used with all generic and with most country-specific extensions. For greater safety, the code includes digits and/or special symbols and is case-sensitive, so in case you’d like to transfer one of your domains, you have to provide the new domain registrar with the correct code.
