Overview
If you have a domain name registered with another provider, you can move it to Miss Hosting and collect your domains in the same place.
To carry out the move, you need an EPP code, also called authorization code or auth code, from your current domain provider.
The move only begins when the payment has been registered and the status of the invoice is shown as Paid in the customer section.
Before you start
Make sure you have the following:
Access to your current domain provider.
The domain's EPP code/authorization code.
Access to Miss Hosting's customer department.
Personal ID number and any VAT registration number (VAT number), if this is requested for the domain.
Prepare the domain with your current provider
Before starting the move, you need:
Log in to your current domain provider.
Check that the domain is unlocked for migration, if domain locking is used.
Get the domain's EPP code/authorization code.
If you can't find the code, contact your current provider and ask them to provide it.
Please note: Some domain extensions have special requirements in order to be moved. For example, .fi domains may require an additional owner change code and .no domains may require additional owner verification.
Confirm the domain details
Once you have received your EPP code, you can start the move.
Log in to the Miss Hosting's customer department.
Go to My Domains.
Select Move a domain.
Enter the domain name you want to move.
Enter the EPP code you received from your current provider.
Click Add to Cart.
Confirm the domain details
Once the domain has been added to the shopping cart, you need to check the details.
Check that the domain name and EPP code are correct.
If the EPP code is not displayed automatically, enter it manually.
Enter the Personal ID number and any VAT registration number if requested.
Click Continue.
Important about nameservers: Leave the nameservers unchanged and keep the setting for Misspark as instructed in the order. Then you can manage the domain's DNS settings via your Miss Hosting account.
Complete the order and pay the invoice
Check the information in the shopping cart.
Click Buy Now to proceed to checkout.
Check your customer details.
Select the desired payment method.
Click Complete Order.
When the order is complete, an invoice is created.
Important: The domain transfer only begins when the status of the invoice has changed to Paid in the customer department.
Once the invoice is paid, the domain move cannot be undone. Therefore, check that you have selected the correct domain and entered the correct EPP code before paying.
How long does a domain transfer take?
The time for a domain move varies depending on which top-level domain (TLD) it applies to and which requirements are set by the domain's registry.
A move usually takes around 24 hours, but in some cases can take up to a week.
Some domain extensions may require additional verification or documentation, which may affect processing time. For example, .fi and .no domains may have special requirements.
Therefore, keep in mind that the move is not always completed immediately after the payment has been registered.
If the domain move does not go through
If the move cannot be carried out, it may be due, for example, to:
That the EPP code is incorrect or has become invalid.
That the domain is still locked with the current provider.
That the domain does not meet the requirements for relocation.
That additional verification or documentation is required for the current domain extension.
Check the details and contact your current domain provider if you need a new EPP code.
