  I need your help to transfer domain to another website. I have it for only 17 days and I am unable to do it by myself as it is to complicated. I managed to unlock domain but dont know what to do next, I changed my contact details as well.
  Regards

  Hi Emilia, a domain can be transferred to a new registrar 60 days from the day it was first registered, or 60 days after its registrant details have been changed – whichever is later.

  Since your domain was registered on 2013-05-05 it’s still too early to transfer it to another registrar. You also mentioned changing contact details – if the registrant information was changed, that also resets the earliest possible transfer date to 60 days from the date you made changes.

  This is explained in our guide for transferring a domain to another registrar:

  For new domains and after changing whois contact information, there is a waiting period of 60 days before a transfer can be initiated.

  If you’re moving away from WordPress.com to another host, you can feel free to update your domain’s name servers to point to your new host. Just let me know if I can help with this process.
