Portal Home > Knowledgebase > Domains > What is Domain Locking?
The Locked status of the domain name is one of the safeguards against unauthorized domain transfers and it protects your rights as a domain owner. However, you need to change the status from Locked to Active if you would like to initiate a domain name transfer. We strongly recommend that you keep your domain in Locked status unless you would like to transfer it to a new registrar.
You will need to contact your current registrar and request the change in your domain name status.
