If you’d like to transfer a domain name from one registrar company to another, you will need a special domain name authorization code, which may be referred to by many names – an EPP key, an AuthInfo code, a domain password, etc. All these names designate the exact same thing – a code that the domain name owner gets from the current domain registrar and provides to the new one during the order procedure. Without a genuine code, a transfer process cannot be initiated and this is one of the safety mechanisms against unsolicited transfer attempts used with all gTLD and with most ccTLD extensions. For greater safety, the code contains numbers and/or special characters and is case-sensitive, so if you wish to transfer one of your domains, you have to provide the new registrar with the right code.
