Exante does not direct register shares, so you need to transfer your shares to another broker that can DRS transfer.
Exante charges a €150 fee for each Basic FOP Transfer. This means each time you want to transfer a specific stock (no matter how many shares) you are charged €150. A popular route has been through Interactive Brokers (IBKR).
The quickest way is to open an Interactive Broker account, buy a share, and request a DRS transfer (link to guide here). While you wait for your Computershare account to be created, you can transfer your shares from Exante to IBKR with a Basic FOP Transfer, then from IBKR to Computershare via DRS transfer for a $5(US) fee.
