.DE Transfers are possible. Upon successfully transfering a .DE domain, it is automatically renewed for one year.
Please note that when a .DE Domain is transferred successfully, then the registration period starts from the beginning!
|
a.) You can initiate a .DE domain transfer either through the RRPproxy WebInterface or through the Socket-Access. Please remember that you must have a signed request from the owner of the domain.
b.) After you have initiated the domain transfer through the RRPproxy, then please fax us the signed transfer form (KK-Antrag). Upon receipt of the KK-Antrag the transfer will be confirmed. If you have already signed the addendum to Appendix E. for .DE Domain, then you no longer need to fax us the KK-Antrag.
c.) A .DE Domain Transfer can stay active up to one month. Then a new KK-Antrag has to be started / initiated. If a provider does not react to a KK-Inquiry for a while, then he still has the possibility of confirming the transfer through a so-called LATE ACK. In case of doubt, then this must always be clarified by the customer.
|
- If possible, please inform your old provider prior to initiating the transfer, so that the transfer is not rejected.
- The KK-Antrag is to be faxed to us, as well as the current provider.
- Double-check if the respective domain has already been paid for and that there are not any open issues with the old registrar
- Ensure that your respective domain does not have a lock-status (LOCK or HOLD). If your domain is locked, then the customer can demand that it be unlocked.
- The transfer is always initiated with the new provider / registrar.
- Start the transfer in time and not just shortly before the expiration date of your domain, because otherwise the transfer could fail.
