Transfer
Transferring a .biz.pr
- You start the transfer with a transfer code from your current registrar.
- Check beforehand that the transfer code is correct, otherwise the transfer will fail.
- Your domain name mustn't have a lock on it. You can see this in the WHOIS. If there is a lock, you can ask for it to be removed as the registrant.
- Your domain name must be older than 60 days, otherwise the transfer will be rejected.
- Start your transfer in good time, not just before your domain name expires.
The transfer code

- The registrant or the administrative contact requests the code from the current registrar.
