# Get EPP Code

An EPP code (also called an authorization code or auth code) is a security credential required to transfer a domain to another registrar. It ensures that only the domain owner can authorize a transfer.

## Requesting Your EPP Code

**1. Navigate to Your Domain**

Open your domain's management page and click **Get EPP Code** in the left sidebar.

**2. Code Sent**

The EPP code is sent to the **registrant's email address** on file for the domain. A confirmation message will read: "The EPP Code request was successful! It has been sent to the registrant's email address for your domain."

> [!NOTE]
>
> The EPP code is sent to the email address listed in the domain's registrant contact information — not your DigitalFyre account email (unless they are the same). Make sure your registrant email is current before requesting the code. See [Contact Information](https://docs.digitalfyre.com/domains/management/contact-information.md).

## When You Need This

You need an EPP code when transferring your domain away from DigitalFyre to another registrar. See [Transferring Out](https://docs.digitalfyre.com/domains/registration-and-transfers/transferring-out) for the full process.
