<p>Cloudflare Registrar API beta now supports domain transfers.</p> <p>You can now use the Cloudflare API to:</p> <ul> <li>Initiate a supported domain transfer into Cloudflare Registrar.</li> <li>Poll transfer status through a dedicated status endpoint.</li> </ul> <p>Before starting a transfer, the domain must already have a zone in your Cloudflare account, DNSSEC must be disabled, and most extensions require an authorization or EPP code from the current registrar.</p> <p>Transfers are asynchronous and typically take 1 to 10 days to complete, so clients should poll the transfer status endpoint to track workflow progress.</p> <p>For transfer initiation and status details, refer to:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/resources/registrar/subresources/transfer_in/methods/create/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Initiate Transfer API reference<span class="external-link"> ↗︎</span></a></li> <li><a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/resources/registrar/subresources/transfer_in_status/methods/get/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Get Transfer Status API reference<span class="external-link"> ↗︎</span></a></li> </ul>
