  Hi there,

  You cannot transfer virginiarand.com as you no longer own it.

  That domain expired on 14 April and is currently in redemption with our domain registrar. It is still possible for me to recover the domain at this point, but our registrar charges a $80 fee to restore a domain from redemption. I’ll need you to agree to that fee before I can get the recovery process started.

  Once the domain is restored to your account you’ll be able to request an EPP code to transfer it.
