What is EPP code and why you need it?
EPP code (or domain code) can be used to transfer a domain to another registrar. If you want to transfer a domain to another registrar, you can contact the NIC.UA support with the appropriate request and within 1-2 days your domain will be ready for transfer.
A EPP code is like a password to the domain: with it you or anyone else can transfer your domain from your account to any other registrar.
Pick up a domain name you always dreamed of
What to do if your hosting provider, website development team, etc. asked for this code?
First of all, find out exactly what they need the EPP code for. After all, before you give up the "keys" to your property, it is better to clarify what they will do with them and how they can do it in another way.
If you order hosting, it is worth looking at the order form. Some hosting providers by default require EPP code to create hosting and domain transfer. Without any explanation that the domain transfer must be paid additionally, and the transfer itself takes 5+ days. And most importantly - that hosting does not need to transfer a domain at all to function!
Usually, if you use a hosting from another provider (not from NIC.UA), you only need to update DNS records for your domain. You can apply this changels in your dashboard and they immediately saved.
