What Is an Outgoing Domain Transfer?

An outgoing domain transfer is a domain transfer from your current registrar to another registrar. In other words, the domain is moved out of your current service environment to another registrar’s system, where renewals, DNS management, contacts, and other domain settings will be managed going forward.

In simple terms, an outgoing transfer is when a domain “moves away from you” to another registrar. This usually requires disabling the registrar lock, obtaining and sharing an authorization code (AuthInfo / EPP code), and confirming the transfer according to the domain zone rules. Exact steps and timelines depend on the registry and domain type.
