A Swiss <code>.ch<\/code>-domain may therefore follow a different transfer procedure than, for example, a <code>.com<\/code>-Domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, at least two registrars are involved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the previous registrar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the new registrar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the background, the registry responsible for the respective top-level domain also plays a role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explain the exact difference between a registry and a registrar at <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/registry-registrar-unterschied\/\">Registry and Registrar: What is the difference?<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which factors influence the transfer duration?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How quickly a domain can be transferred depends, among other things, on whether all prerequisites for the transfer are met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This may include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>a valid transfer or auth code<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>a domain approved for transfer<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the current domain status<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the rules of the respective domain extension<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>required confirmations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>processing by the previous registrar, new registrar and registry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a prerequisite is missing, the transfer may be delayed or rejected completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does the transfer of a .ch domain take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <code>.ch<\/code>-domains should not be compared with the known transfer periods of generic top-level domains such as <code>.com<\/code> be expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><code>.ch<\/code> has its own registry\/registrar system and a corresponding transfer process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the necessary transfer information is correctly available and there are no special problems, a registrar change can be processed comparatively quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A fixed duration should nevertheless not be guaranteed, as the actual process depends on the specific transfer and the systems involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important:<\/strong> Statements such as \u201eevery domain transfer takes five days\u201c do not apply generally to <code>.ch<\/code>. Transfer rules for generic top-level domains cannot simply be applied to Swiss domains.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does a .com domain transfer take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <code>.com<\/code> and many other generic top-level domains are subject to standardized registrar transfer procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A transfer can take several days. Depending on the process and the response of the previous registrar, the procedure may be completed earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The crucial thing is that the domain is transferable, the required auth code is correct, and all necessary confirmations are completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even with a <code>.com<\/code>Therefore, conclusions about the exact completion time of a specific transfer should not be drawn from a general time specification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do you often read about five to seven days?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such information frequently relates to transfer procedures for certain generic top-level domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They are unsuitable as a general statement for all domains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One transfer may be completed more quickly, while another may take longer or initially not be able to be processed at all due to a lock, a missing confirmation, or a special domain status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Completely different procedures may in turn apply to country code extensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When does the transfer duration start?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The actual transfer processing can only meaningfully begin once the necessary prerequisites have been met and the required information has been transmitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, if you are still waiting for a transfer code from your previous provider, this does not automatically mean that the domain is already in the process of a registrar transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even an active transfer ban can prevent the actual transfer process from beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The time for preparation should therefore be distinguished from the actual technical transfer duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can delay a domain transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Common causes include an incorrect transfer code, an active transfer lock, or a pending confirmation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The domain status can also be crucial. For example, if a domain is in a special expiration phase, a normal transfer might not be possible under certain circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For certain generic top-level domains, time-based transfer restrictions may also apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Practical Tip:<\/strong> If a domain transfer takes longer than expected, do not immediately start a second transfer order. First, check the status of the existing transfer and any error message that may be present.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can an incorrect auth code delay the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a transfer or auth code is required for the domain in question and an incorrect or no longer valid code is used, the transfer cannot be properly authorized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this case, you should check with your current registrar to see if the transfer code used is up to date and correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the provider, this is also referred to as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Auth Code<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authorization Code<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AuthInfo-Code<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>EPP code<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transfer code<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">referred to as.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can a registrar lock delay the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. For domain extensions that support corresponding transfer locks, a Registrar Lock can prevent the transfer to another registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For certain generic top-level domains, for example, the status:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><code>clientTransferProhibited<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">point out that a registrar transfer is currently locked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explain how to recognize such a situation and what to watch out for at <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/unlock-domain-for-transfer\/\">Unlock domain for transfer: Registrar Lock and transfer lock explained<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about the 60-day rule?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Certain generic top-level domains may have transfer restrictions, for example, after a new registration or a previous registrar change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under certain circumstances, changes to registration data can also play a role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a time restriction cannot be accelerated by restarting a transfer job multiple times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Above all:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important:<\/strong> A so-called 60-day rule does not apply generally to every domain extension. Always check the transfer rules of the TLD actually involved.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can the current registrar speed up the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During certain transfer procedures, the reaction of the previous registrar can influence when the process is completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether an active confirmation or approval is possible or required depends on the respective transfer procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, you should also pay attention to messages from your previous registrar during an ongoing transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a legitimate transfer confirmation is offered there and you actually initiated the transfer yourself, its processing may be relevant to the further procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I need to reply to a confirmation email?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on the domain extension and the registrar involved, confirmations may be required during a transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, do not automatically ignore messages about the ongoing transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, carefully check whether the message actually belongs to your initiated domain transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should not share transfer codes and other security-relevant domain information via unknown links or with unknown recipients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens if I miss a transfer confirmation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That depends on the respective transfer method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A required confirmation that has not been carried out can cause a transfer to be delayed or not completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a transfer appears to stall, it should therefore be checked whether an action by the domain holder or an involved contact is still pending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I know if the transfer is still in progress?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a transfer, the status can be displayed differently depending on the domain extension and registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For certain top-level domains, domain status information can provide additional hints. A possible status during an ongoing transfer is, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><code>pending transfer<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This status is not like an ordinary transfer ban such as <code>clientTransferProhibited<\/code> to equate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the customer area, the transfer can also be displayed as pending, in progress, or processing, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does pendingTransfer mean?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For registry systems that use this status, it shows <code>pending transfer<\/code> that the domain is already in a transfer process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is fundamentally different from a domain whose transfer is blocked due to a lock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While a legitimate transfer is already in progress, no attempt should be made to start further parallel transfers without a specific reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I continue to use my website during the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In principle, a website can continue to run during a pure registrar transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The domain transfer itself does not move any website files and does not automatically change the web hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If nameservers and DNS configuration remain unchanged and the previous hosting is active, the website can continue to be accessible via the same infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> The duration of the domain transfer is not automatically a downtime of your website.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does email continue to work during a domain transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Email traffic is not automatically interrupted just because the domain is transferred to another registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name servers and DNS entries\u2014in particular the MX records\u2014as well as the mail server infrastructure that remains active are decisive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If these remain unchanged and correct, email can continue to work independently of the registrar transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do the nameservers change during the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A domain transfer and a nameserver change are technically different processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nameservers should therefore not be changed solely because the domain is being transferred to another registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your domain is then to use the CURIAWEB nameservers, they are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>ns1.curiaweb.ch\nns2.curiaweb.ch<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explain the setup at <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/find-curiaweb-nameserver\/\">Finding and correctly using CURIAWEB nameservers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I change the nameservers during an ongoing transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unless there is a technical reason to do so, it is often clearer to perform registrar changes and DNS modifications separately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes it much easier in the event of problems to identify whether the cause lies with the domain transfer, DNS, or hosting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a complete hosting change is planned at the same time, the sequence should be prepared consciously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does a domain transfer cause DNS propagation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A mere registrar transfer does not automatically cause DNS propagation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the authoritative name servers and DNS records remain unchanged, there is no new DNS value solely due to the registrar change that would first need to be updated in resolver caches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if the nameservers or individual DNS records are changed in connection with the transfer, caches may temporarily continue to provide older information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explain how this works at <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/dns-propagation-erklaert\/\">What is DNS propagation and why does a DNS change take time?<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does a domain transfer take along with a hosting change?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, two different time periods should be considered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Domain transfer<\/strong> regarding the registrar transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Hosting change<\/strong> concerns, on the other hand, for example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Website files<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Databases<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Email accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DNS configuration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tests of the new environment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the total duration of a complete relocation does not only depend on how quickly the domain is transferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, a complex website or extensive email mailboxes may require more preparation time than the registrar transfer itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I have to wait for the domain transfer before moving the website?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, not fundamentally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new hosting environment can often be prepared while the domain is still with the previous registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is actually useful during a planned relocation, because the website, databases, and potentially email can be prepared and tested prior to the actual switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We explain how to keep your domain with your current registrar and still use CURIAWEB hosting at <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/domain-bei-anderem-anbieter-mit-curiaweb-hosting-verbinden\/\">Keep domain with another registrar and connect to CURIAWEB Hosting<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I cancel my previous hosting during the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, as long as there are still productive services or required data there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The previous hosting environment should only be terminated once the website, email, and all other required services have been fully set up and tested on the new infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The completion of the domain transfer alone is not proof that a hosting migration has also been fully completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happens if my domain expires during the transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This should be avoided as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a domain is close to its expiration date, it should be clarified before the transfer which procedure makes sense and is permitted for the TLD in question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Renewal, expiration, and transfer rules differ among domain extensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An already expired domain can also be in a state where a normal transfer is no longer easily possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will cover that under <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/domain-expired-pending-redemption\/\">Domain expired or PendingRedemption: What does the domain status mean?<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I cancel an ongoing domain transfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether and how an already initiated transfer can be canceled or rejected depends on the respective transfer procedure and its current status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, if you have accidentally initiated a transfer or no longer wish to carry it out, you should check the available options with the registrar involved as early as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a transfer occurs that you did not initiate yourself, you should react immediately and contact your registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is my transfer taking longer than expected?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a transfer remains in progress unusually long, you should not look exclusively at the elapsed time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check instead:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Has the transfer actually started?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is the transfer code correct?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is there a transfer ban?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Is a confirmation pending?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Does a time-based transfer restriction apply?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What is the status of the domain?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ist die Domain noch regul\u00e4r aktiv?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So l\u00e4sst sich unterscheiden, ob der Transfer normal verarbeitet wird oder tats\u00e4chlich blockiert ist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wie kann ich die DNS-Konfiguration nach dem Transfer pr\u00fcfen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nach Abschluss des Transfers solltest du kontrollieren, ob die gew\u00fcnschte DNS-Konfiguration weiterhin vorhanden ist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the <a href=\"\/en\/dns-check\/\">CURIAWEB DNS-Check<\/a> kannst du die aktuell \u00f6ffentlich sichtbaren DNS-Informationen deiner Domain \u00fcberpr\u00fcfen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eine systematische Anleitung findest du unter <a href=\"\/en\/help\/domains-dns\/dns-eintraege-pruefen\/\">Check DNS records: View current DNS configuration of a domain<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Was sollte ich nach einem erfolgreichen Transfer kontrollieren?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nach dem Registrar-Wechsel sollte gepr\u00fcft werden, ob die Domain ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df im neuen Kundenbereich verwaltet wird und alle ben\u00f6tigten Dienste weiterhin funktionieren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These include in particular:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Domainstatus<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nameserver<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Website<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HTTPS<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Email reception and transmission<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Subdomains<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>external services<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wenn nur der Registrar gewechselt wurde und alle \u00fcbrigen Einstellungen unver\u00e4ndert geblieben sind, sollte der Transfer f\u00fcr Websitebesucher normalerweise weitgehend unbemerkt bleiben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wie bereite ich einen m\u00f6glichst reibungslosen Transfer vor?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ein Domaintransfer l\u00e4sst sich am besten beschleunigen, indem unn\u00f6tige Verz\u00f6gerungen bereits vor dem Start vermieden werden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pr\u00fcfe deshalb vorab:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>ob die Domain regul\u00e4r aktiv ist<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ob
