What is a domain-transfer?
A domain-transfer means moving a domain name from one domain-registrar to another.
Unfortunately not every domain name can be transfered. After you have logged into
galcomm.com account with your username and Password you can start a transfer by
clicking on TRANSFER Link:
How long does a domain-transfer take?
Basically a domain-transfer takes up to one week, but there are differences between
the respective domains. In case of gerneric Transfers such as com/net/org/info/biz
(also 5 days) In order to initiate the transfer for this domain, we need
the respective Authorisation Code, which can be obtained from the current registrar.
Our system will automatically ask you to enter the Authorisation Code after you
have entered the domain for transfer. The transfer can only be processed with a
valid authorisation code.
How can I start a domain-transfer?
- Login your galcomm.com account using your username and password and click on TRANSFER
link.
- Please enter into the respective field the domain you wish to transfer. (one domain
per line, without "www" and a maximum of 50 Domains per transaction)
- Confirm with "SUBMIT"
- When transfering com/net/info/org/info/biz/name Domains you will see an additional
fields, where you must enter the Authorisation Code which can be obtained from the
current registrar.
- After the transfer has been successfully initiated, then our system send a confirmation
email to the Owner/Admin-C according to WHOIS of the respective domain. In order
to further process this transfer it is important, that this email gets confirmed.
After this has been completed, then the losing registrar will receive the transfer
request. The losing registrar will also send an email to the Owner/Admin-C. allowing
him/her to deny the transfer. If you do not respond to the email from the losing
registrar, then the transfer will get processed successfully after 5 days.
IMPORTANT: - If the Email-Address in the WHOIS is invalid, then the transfer
cannot be processed. If this is the case, then kindly contact your current registrar
and ask him to update the WHOIS information accordingly. You can only transfer domains
which are older than 60 days after their creation date (this can be viewed through
the WHOIS) Furthermore you can only transfer domains which are not on LOCK (also
viewable through the WHOIS)
What is an authorization code?
The so called authorization code is some kind of security key to prevent unauthorized
transfers. If a domain name should be transfered you always need an authorization
code. The code must always be requested at your current registrar.

You can easily obtain the EPP authcode of your domain as follows:
- log in your customer account under galcomm.com with your Username and Password.

There can be a few different reasons why a domain transfer can fail or be canceled.
