Transfers

The .TO domain Auth Codes are only active for 14 days from the date of creation.

We will then generate a new Auth Code and the new code is valid for 14 days from creation date.  If the transfer does not complete with in the time frame, you may need to request a new Auth Code. 

Changes of ownership

There is a cost of $40 for any change of ownership/trade.
