Transfer
Transferring a .com.tw
- You need a valid transfer code to start the transfer.
- Make sure the domain name isn't locked at your current registrar.
- The domain name must be more than 60 days old and the last transfer must have been more than 60 days ago. Otherwise the transfer will be rejected.
- After the request, the registrant receives an email asking them to confirm the transfer. The transfer is only carried out after that confirmation. If you don't confirm, the request lapses.
- Start the transfer in good time, not just before the domain name expires.
The transfer code
- A transfer code is required for a transfer.
- The registrant or the administrative contact can request the code from the current registrar.
