First transfer the registration:

1) Go to www.register.ie and click on the Transfers tab at the top of the page.

2) Enter in the domain name(s) that you wish to transfer to us and click on the Submit button.

3) The cost of the transfer will appear and to continue you will need to scroll down the page and click on the button "Continue with current purchase".

4) Then if you are a new client, fill in the New client section and continue and if you are an existing client fill in the Existing client section to add the domain to your account.

5) Once you have logged in you will need to verify the contact information and complete the payment.

6) An email will be sent to the current admin contact asking them if they wish to accept the transfer. We cannot change where this email is sent to, it has to go to the admin contact currently listed by Eurid.

7) Once this is done it can take up to 2 weeks for Eurid to process it but usually less at which point the transfer will complete.

Once this is done follow the steps below to transfer your website:

4) Give our technicians the IP address your mailserver is on. As you are changing from the other companies nameservers pointing to this IP address to our nameservers pointing to this IP address there will be no interruption to your mail.

5) Make sure the site you want to appear is now uploaded to our servers and fully ready to go.

6) As we are authoritative for the domain we can change to our own nameservers at this stage. notify our technicians when you are ready to switch over.
