# How to Transfer a Domain to Vertico

Transferring a domain moves its management to Vertico while keeping the same domain name.

## Before Starting

- Confirm the domain is active.
- Ensure you control the registrant email address.
- Unlock the domain where applicable.
- Obtain the transfer or EPP code for supported extensions.
- Check that the domain is not within a transfer restriction period.

## Transfer Steps

1. Place a domain transfer order in your Vertico account.
2. Enter the transfer code when requested.
3. Pay the transfer invoice.
4. Approve any transfer confirmation email.
5. Keep existing DNS records unchanged until the transfer completes.

## Zimbabwean Domains

Some .zw transfers follow registry-specific procedures and may require written authorisation or supporting documents.
