It's easier and you'll get the exact answer to your question by talking to a rep of the new company you're transferring your domain to via Live Chat. They should have live support if they are good, I don't host domains or websites with companies who don't have an efficient and active support system. This is Nairaland, a lot of people will come here to tell you Yes or No, but fact is we don't know the company you are moving domain from or to and we don't work with those companies too, so there's no way we can tell exactly what you should expect. Good luck anyways.

Yep it's 100% possible

If it's the same domain registrar, it will take minutes or hours. But if its two differents registrars, you should give it more than 24-48hrs

i recommend setting the default dns of the new registrar to that of your web host so that when the domain gets transferred, it sticks.

Yes, you must preconfigure the destination hosting properly - and even sometimes use a central database that will not change.

In short, you must compensate for the changes that will take place when the pointing happens. It will depend on 2 things:
1. The complexity of the website.
2. The level of skill of the developer.

This is the most Correct response. Was about to type this but seeing this, I had to agree.
Every domain has Time to live (ttf), Time to expire, time to refresh, etc and if time to refresh is 24 hours, Am sorry you Wood have to wait so it's recommended you alter the settings to say 5 minutes.

My suggestion, if you can't alter your DNS settings, better get in touch with the new company support staff and they should be able to help.

Re: Is It Possible To Transfer A Domain Without Experiencing Downtime by Nobody: 9:48am On Jul 22, 2017
Yes it possible. I have transfered domain names before and didn't experience downtime for once.
see http://domaindome.org
Re: Is It Possible To Transfer A Domain Without Experiencing Downtime by UncleSnr(m): 10:10am On Jul 22, 2017
Yes, I did it on projectshamba.com. moved from 1&1 to namecheap.
Re: Is It Possible To Transfer A Domain Without Experiencing Downtime by LuckyWinner(m): 1:46pm On Jul 22, 2017
Yeah.. it is very possible. Moved from 1and1 to Garrantor.ng . No downtime! This was because

1. 1and1 let me know that it's very important to initiate my transfer at least 30 days to the expiration of the domain name to avoid complications.

2. I knew some ICANN rules governing domain transfer and change of domain details. This could lock out transfers for 60 good days if you aren't aware. see:
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/registrars/transfers-en

So, to avoid downtimes, make sure you read up about transfer policies by your old registrar and update your new domain registrar with information about your hosting and DNS settings.
Keep in touch with both registrars through email.

All the best.
