    How to import a domain into my GoDaddy account from another GoDaddy account belonging to a 3rd party

    I have two domain names that are registered with Godaddy through my current hosting company which is not Godaddy. I have now opened a Godaddy account myself and would like to transfer the two domain names from the Godaddy account of my hosting company to my own Godaddy account but keep the other current hosting company for the time being. Is this possible and how do I go about it?

    Thanks for the response. But then these instructions pertain to the situation whereby I would like to transfer a domain name from my Godaddy account to another Godaddy account. I am looking for a reverse solution i.e. I have opened a new Godaddy account (my first ever with Godaddy) and I would like to transfer my two domains to this account FROM another Godaddy account that does NOT belong to me.

    @yohannie that's what you need. Only that you have to initiate the process from the account that holds the domains.

    If you do not have access to that account, you should contact support and ask them what you can do.

     

    Hope it helps!

    Hi @yohannie,

     

    It sounds like the domains you want to move into your new GoDaddy account are currently in an account for which you have a hosting plan-- but don't have access. The folks that own that account (with your domains) need to be the ones that initiate the Change of Account as per the instructions provided in the other reply.

     

    You will need to provide the owners of the account with your domains with your email address. They can then start the process, sending you codes through the system that you will enter in your new account. The domains will move within minutes of this action.

     

    You can use this in your account to complete the action...
