Question: how quickly can you (and everyone else who has a domain registered with Godaddy) transfer your domain to another registrar?

All the admin probably takes an hour at most; it's an automated process with some identity verification, and most registrars loooove to have you as a customer so they want to make it as easy as possible for you.

There may be a mandatory waiting period.

And finally, there's DNS caches; if you know a migration is upcoming, it's worthwhile setting the TTL to a lower amount.
