Transfer procedure


Requirements:

In order to proceed with a transfer, the current domain name's registrar must approve the request. Some registrars, like NETIM, have implemented a protection against transfers to approve or reject automatically the requests. In this case, you must ensure that this protection is disabled.


Different stages:

Once your order has been confirmed, we will send a request for the transfer of your domain name to the .DE registry. The latter will contact current domain name's registrar to request its approval:


  • In the event of acceptance within 5 days, the transfer is immediatly carried out.
  • In the event of refusal, the transfer is cancelled.
  • In the event of failure to reply within 5 days, the transfer is cancelled.

Once the transfer has been finalised, the domain name's expiration date is extended for a one year period starting from the date of the end of transfer. For example, if the domain expires on the 2012-12-15 and if the transfer is carried out on the 2012-11-30 the new expiration date will then be the 2013-11-30..

  

Important information

  • Deadline for transfer: 2 or 3 days before expiration of the domain name
  • Best date for transfer: Not less than 1 week before expiration of the domain name
