An incoming domain transfer is a domain transfer coming into your registrar. In other words, the domain is moved from another registrar into the current service environment, where you can manage renewals, DNS settings, contacts, and other domain parameters.
In simple terms, an incoming transfer is when a domain “moves to you” (to your account at the new registrar). This usually requires the domain to be eligible for transfer, the lock to be disabled, and an authorization code (AuthInfo / EPP code) to be provided if required by the domain zone rules.
It is an incoming domain transfer to a new registrar. The domain moves from another registrar’s service to your current account at the selected registrar.
It is essentially the same domain transfer process, but described from the receiving registrar’s perspective. “Incoming transfer” emphasizes that the domain is being moved to you, not away from you.
You usually need to confirm the domain is eligible for transfer, disable the lock at the current registrar, get the AuthInfo / EPP code, submit it when ordering the transfer at the new registrar, and confirm the move. Exact steps depend on the domain zone and registry rules.
