Transfer a domain away from WordPress.com

  1. Visit your site’s dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Upgrades → Domains to find a list of all domains associated with your site.
  3. Click on the registered domain that you wish to transfer.
  4. Click on the Transfer button.
    • If you don’t have this option, ensure the domain is owned by you and not by another admin on the site. Only the owner can transfer their domain.
  5. Under the Advanced Options section, click on the toggle option for Transfer lock on to disable the transfer lock
  6. Click the Get authorization code button. This code may be referred to as an “auth code” or “EPP code” by your new registrar.
  7. A banner message at the top of the screen confirms that the transfer code has been sent to your email. Please allow up to 15 minutes for the email with the code to arrive.
