Domain transfer means that you are transferring a domain from one hosting server to another. You will need to change the dns server of the domain to that of the new hosting server. You should be able to log in to your domain control panel to do these changes. The DNS propagation will take not more than 24 hrs to complete.

You wanna know the whole process of domain transfer? This is the complete process if you want to transfer your domain; 1. Make sure that your domain is transferable, update your domain name Administrative Contact email to your own accessible email. 2. Once you have initiate the transfer, the Administrative Contact for the Domain Name will receive an e-mail from your current registrar for the Transfer Authorization process. 3. Once the mail has been approved by the Administrative Contact, the Current Registrar will be notified regarding the same. The Current Registrar will confirm the Transfer Order by sending an e-mail to the Registrant or the Administrative Contact of the concerned Domain Name or can also deny the Transfer Order. 4. You will now need to wait for the Current Registrar to approve the Transfer. Ideally, at this stage your domain name should transfer within 5 working days. 5. Wallaa... your Domain Name is transferred! Hope that helps. :)
