How to Change Nameservers
If your hosting company requires you to use their nameservers, or if you run your own DNS server, you'll need to change the authoritative nameservers for your domain.

⚠️️ Warning
Changing nameservers from Porkbun to another DNS host will usually break any Porkbun-hosted services such as web hosting and email. Make sure your new DNS host is set up to answer requests for these services before you change nameservers.

⚠️️ Warning
Changes to your authoritative nameservers will take up to 48 hours to propagate worldwide. In practice, most places will see the change within a few hours. To track nameserver propagation, you can use a free service like www.whatsmydns.net and select NS as the record type.
Please note that if you wish to use an authoritative nameserver that is tied to the domain name itself (such as ns1.yourdomain.com), you'll first need to create a "glue" record in your domain's settings under the Details menu. This guide explains more.
