Locking / Unlocking your Domain Name 

Domain Name Locking is a crucial security feature as it prevents domain names from being transferred away to other Registrars, without it being explicitly removed. Placing a Lock has the following effects on your domain name:

1.   The Contact Details and Name Servers of such a Domain Name can not be modified in this
       state

2.   A Transfer [Away] Request for this domain name to another Registrar will fail at the
       Registry itself and will not be allowed

3.   An internal Move of this domain name (to another Customer Account) would not be
       possible in this state

IMPORTANT NOTE

.EU/.UK domain names do not support locking. Hence you can not lock a .EU/.UK domain name.

Domain Names can be Locked/Unlocked from your Control Panel by following the process mentioned below -

1.   Login to your Control Panel and search for the domain name that you wish to Lock/Unlock

2.   Click on the Domain name in the search results to get to the Order details view

3.   Click on the Lock/Unlock Button

4.   On the following page:

• If you wish to Lock the Service you would have to select the Check Box for Locking and click on the Update button.

• For Unlocking unselect the Check Box and click on the Update button.
