.INFO Domain-Transfers are possible. Upon successfully transfering a domain, it is automatically renewed for one year. The registration period is extended by one year.
|
- .INFO Domain-Transfers can either be done through the RRPProxy WebInterface or Socket Access.
- A .INFO Domain Transfer must be initiated with a so-called “Authorisation Code”, which can be obtained from the current registrar through the owner or Admin-C of the domain.
- Please note that you need a signed request from the registrant before you initiate the transfer.
|
a.) Please ensure, that you have a correct “Authorisation Code” associated with the domain, before initiating the transfer, otherwise it will fail.
b.) Ensure that your respective domain does not have a lock-status (REGISTRAR-LOCK or HOLD). This can be seen in the WHOIS. If the domain is locked, then the owner can demand that this be unlocked.
c.) Initiate the transfer on time and not just shortly before the domain expires.
d.) Please ensure that the domain is older than 60 days otherwise the transfer will be denied.
