Transfering .CO.UK Domain

In this tutorial we will show how to transfer a .co.uk domain registration to Hostek.

1. You will need to contact your current registrar for the .co.uk domain and have them update the IPS Tag for the domain to 'TUCOWS-CA'.


Note: This will put the domain under our registry.. but in order for it to be under our account you must perform the below steps as well.



2. Once the IPS Tags have been updated to 'TUCOWS-CA', then follow the below WIKI article on placing an order. Since the IPS Tags will be under OpenSRS once you place the order with us the domain will sync up to our account and renew for an additional year as well.


Note: Following the steps in the below wiki will show you need to enter a EPP Code. Since .co.uk domains do not have an EPP code you can enter in a fake / random string of text in this box.. since the EPP code field is required.
