Let’s get started...

Transferring UK domains (.co.uk, .org.uk, .me.uk, .uk) to LCN

1. Go to the domain transfers page.
2. Enter your domain in the Domain name field and click +.



Please note: a maximum of 20 domains can be transferred in one transaction.


3. Click CONTINUE
4. If your domain is more than one month from its expiry date the transfer is free. If not, you have the option to renew for a year which you can pay for whilst setting up the transfer.
5. If you’re an existing customer login to your LCN account, otherwise create a new account.
6. Once the transfer has been set up, you’ll need to instruct your current registrar to change your domain’s IPS tag. This needs to be changed to LCN.

Note: The speed of the transfer relies on how quickly your current registrar releases your domain. This normally completes within 24 hours.

Transferring all other domains (.com, .net, .info, etc...) to LCN

Before starting the transfer process, you’ll need to do the following:

• Ask your current domain provider to unlock the domain and provide you with the domain’s Authorisation Code (also known as an EPP Code)

Once this is done you can proceed with the transfer, using the instructions below:

1. Go to the domain transfers page.
2. Enter your domain in the Domain name field and click +.



Please note: a maximum of 20 domains can be transferred in one transaction.


3. Click CONTINUE
4. You'll then be prompted to enter the Auth code for the domain.
5. The domain transfer will be added to your basket. The cost includes a one year extension to your domain’s expiry date.
6. If you’re an existing customer login to your LCN account, otherwise create a new account.
7. Your current provider may then send you an email asking if you want to approve the outbound transfer of the domain.
8. If the transfer isn’t approved, it’ll time out after five days and the process will need to be re-started.
