When can a transfer code not be requested?
There are several situations in which you cannot request a transfer code for a domain name:
On hold
When a domain name is on hold this means that there are legal proceedings about that domain name.
Locked
If your domain name is locked, you cannot request a transfer code online. This also means that someone else cannot launch a transfer of this domain name via our site.
-
1. Did you request the lock at your registrar or webmaster? Ask them to unlock it so you can request the transfer code again.
2. Did your registrar or webmaster automatically set the lock for you? Log into the customer panel and deactivate this option yourself, so that you can then request the code again. If that doesn't work, contact your registrar or webmaster to lift the lock.

- change your domain name holder data
- move of transfer your domain name
- delete your domain name
