2. **Obtain the authorization code (EPP code):**  Most registrars provide an authorization code, also known as an EPP code, which is required to initiate a domain transfer.

9. **Review and confirm the transfer:** Double-check that all the information is correct and click "Confirm Transfer" to finalize the process.

10. **Wait for the transfer to complete:** The transfer process typically takes 5-7 days and requires approval from your previous registrar.  

 Ensure your domain is unlocked before attempting a transfer. A locked domain cannot be transferred.

 Some registrars may charge a transfer fee. DNSimple may also have transfer fees, so review their pricing information.

 After the transfer, you'll need to update your DNS records at DNSimple to ensure your website and services continue to function correctly. 

 If you have any services associated with your domain, such as email or hosting, make sure you understand how the transfer might affect them and factor in any necessary adjustments.

 If you encounter any issues during the transfer process, contact DNSimple's support team for assistance.
