How do I transfer my UK domain to PAKHOST?

Step 1 - Please ask your current domain registrar (tag holder) to change the tag (also known as the IPS Tag) for your domain to "PAKNIC-PK". You do not need to place an order online with us.

Step 2 - Send us an email telling us your username, and the domain you just re-tagged.

Step 3 - We will add the domain to your account, once Nominet (.UK registry) notifies us the domain has been re-tagged.

PAKHOST does not charge a fee for this service. Please be aware that your domain will not be renewed for 1 year, unlike domain transfers for COM/NET and most other domain types.

If your current registrar will not or can not change your tag for you, then you can ask Nominet to do it for you for a fee.
