How to retrieve the transfer code for an OVH domain
Procédure
What is a transfer code (Auth code)?
The transfer code is a unique code ranging from 6 to 32 characters assigned to each domain name. It is designed to prevent fraudulent and unauthorised domain name transfers. This code is an additional security feature for your domain name to ensure that the customer transferring the domain is the actual owner.
The transfer code is required for most extensions.
What is required before I can retrieve the transfer code for an OVH domain?
When a domain is transferred, the DNS servers associated with the domain name will remain identical. In fact, if the DNS servers are ns1.ovh.com and ns2.ovh.com, these will not change once the transfer has been completed. This can pose a problem for the visibility of your website.
To avoid any loss of data, it is advisable to make a backup of your data before recovering the transfer code.
You should also check with your service provider that protection against the transfer of your domain has been deactivated.
