Transfer

• Why are you unable to send the transfer authorization email to any address I want?

  The registrant contact and administrative contact listed in the Whois are the only parties that can authorize a domain transfer as stated by ICANN. Therefore, the authorization email can only be sent to the address listed in those two fields.If you would like the authorization email sent to a different address, you would need to update your contact records with your current registrar first.Find out more about the domain transfer process.How do I update my Whois email address?

• Why hasn't my domain been transferred yet?

  Domain transfers can take up to six days to complete once the transfer has been authorized and initiated. Some domain registrars do not respond to transfer out requests, so on the sixth day the central registry will automatically change the domain registrar to the new one if there is no response from the previous registrar.The full transfer process can take anywhere from five to fifteen days. If you have already completed the transfer authorization (this is sent to your Whois email address) and confirmed the transfer with your previous registrar, then we are most likely waiting for your previous domain registrar to approve the transfer. Please direct your queries to them.Learn more about the steps involved in the domain transfer process

• Can premium .TV domains be transferred?

  Yes, you can transfer your premium .TV to any registrar which supports premium .TV domains.Please note that not all premium .TV domains renew at standard price. Some now renew, and transfer, at the premium rate.

• Why does it cost money to transfer my .NL domain, but no time was added to my expiration date?

  When you transfer your .NL domain to us, the transfer process is the same as most of our top-level domains (TLDs). However, unlike most TLDs, a year will not be added to your .NL domain - at least not at first. The payment you made in your transfer order actually does go towards adding a year to your .NL domain, but because the central registry only allows a maximum of 1 year of registration for .NL, we cannot immediately add the additional year we owe you. Instead, it is added automatically closer to the expiration date of your .NL domain.

• How do I transfer my .LT domain to Dynadot?

  Transferring a .LT domain is different than most domain transfers. To transfer your .LT domain to Dynadot, please follow these steps: Ask your current registrar to push the domain to us. There is no cost to do this and no time is added to the domain. You do not need to place an order on our transfer page. Email us at [email protected] and let us know your username and the domain you are transferring. Dynadot does not charge a fee for this service. Please be aware that your domain will not be renewed for 1 year, unlike domain transfers for .COM, .NET, and most other domain extensions.
