Transferring .UK Domains

How does the .uk transfer process work?

Unlike the other domain extensions which we offer, the .uk Registry uses the Domain Tag System.

The Domain Tag links your .uk domain name to the Registrar responsible for your domain name.

To transfer your .uk domain name into our services please follow the steps below:

The .UK Transfer Process

Step 1. Update Domain Tag

To initiate the transfer of your .uk domain name into our services, you will need to contact your current registrar and request that they update the Tag for your domain name to "TUCOWS-CA".

You can check to see if the tag has been updated by doing a WHOIS lookup on the domain name and checking the Registrant's agent.

If you are having troubles getting your current registrar to update the Tag for your domain name for you, you may update the Tag for your domain name directly through Nominet, the .uk Registry. (More Details)

Step 2. Submit Transfer through Misk.com's Automated Transfers Page

Once the Tag Change has been completed by your current registrar, you may submit the transfer through Misk.com's Automated Transfers Page at http://misk.com/transfers/ .

Step 3. Transfer Completed

.Uk transfers transfers usually take about 24 - 48 hours to be completed.

You will be notified by email as soon as the transfer has been completed. You may then login to your Misk.com control panel to manage the domain name.
