I'm really sorry for posting on wrong some but I need some attention since I'm in bit hurry .
My domain about to expire on name.com and I want to transfer it to name cheap ( since I have fund on my account ) ,
this is first time (if I remember it right) I transfer my domain to another registrar and I don't remember all rules to make it happened .

Also, in some cases I had to renew my domain name ( it was about to expire ), in order to transfer it to another registrar. The minimum period ( before it expires ) was around 60 days. So, before I've transferred it, I'he had to renew it.

What ! why I can't renew it on Name cheap after transfer , does that mean I have to pay renew fees twice ! anyway domain have 1 month and couple days ,
I thought the rules says domain should passed 60 from last transfer/renew . this is quote from Namecheap transfer page

The domain must have been registered or transferred at least 60 days ago.

Most reputable registrars will add an extra year as part of the transfer fee, and I know firsthand that NameCheap follows the same practice.

Namecheap will extend it for you. Just start the transfer normally and see how it goes.

You will have to renew it at name first then you will be able to transfer it to namecheap.

I had to do the same with one of my domains at godaddy since they would generate the transfer code.
