Steps to transfer domains from Dynadot

STEP 1: Login

At first, Login your Dynadot account

STEP 2: Check Order Log

The domains which have been registered in Dynadot must be more than 60 days old. If it’s not more than 60 days, you can’t make the transfer. To check the period of the domain, you can check it on ‘Check Your Order Log’ which is available at the left side of the dashboard.

STEP 3: Checking Expiration 

You must check whether the domain is active or expired. If the domain is expired, you cannot transfer the domain. To check the expiration date of the domains, click on ‘Manage Domains’ page in the ‘My Domains’ option.

STEP 4: Whois Information

Before beginning the transfer of domains, check ‘Whois’ information which is available in the ‘Manage Domains’ page. In that page, click on the left arrow which is present near the domain. This is very much necessary as the new registrar will send a confirmation mail to your registered mail, for the confirmation of the transfer.

STEP 5: Unlocking the domain

To start a transfer, the domain must be unlocked. You can unlock it from the ‘Manage Domains’ page, where the option will be at the appropriate right side of the domain you would like to transfer as mentioned in the image.
