Step 2: Initiate
the outbound Transfer at UK Free Software Network Ltd
The process of Transferring a .UK Domain Name
from UK Free Software Network Ltd to another Registrar is slightly different compared to the process for Domain Names under
other extensions. In case of a .UK Domain Name, the outbound Transfer needs to be
initiated at UK Free Software Network Ltd, instead of the New
Registrar.
IMPORTANT
The process listed below can be initiated only
from within the Customer Control Panel, since the Customer is considered to
be the owner of the domain name.
Once you have determined whether your .UK Domain Name can be Transferred, you need
to initiate the outbound Transfer at UK Free Software Network Ltd:
-
Login to your Control Panel, search for the .UK Domain Name
that you wish to Transfer away and go to the Order Details view.

wish to Transfer your .UK Domain Name. A Tag is an alphanumeric string used to
identify a .UK Registrar. The Tag can be obtained by contacting the New
Registrar/Service Provider under whom you wish to have your domain name
Transferred.
-
Proceed further to initiate the
Transfer away process.
You will receive a notification via email from UK Free Software Network Ltd,
once your .UK Domain Name has been successfully Transferred to the New
Registrar.
