EA is giving Star Wars: The Old Republic players in Asia-Pacific territories the chance to transfer their characters to a locally hosted server for free from now until April 24.

Only characters created before this time will qualify for the free transfers. Players can check to see whether they qualify by checking the “My Account” screen on StarWarsTheOldRepublic.com and clicking the “Asia Pacific Transfers” link on the right-side menu.
Players who qualify can request character transfers to an Asia-Pacific server by filling out and submitting the information on the Asia-Pacific Transfers page on the site.
