Domain Transfer Details
Transfer Procedure
- The transfer is submitted to the registry and the losing registrar is automatically notified by them.
- The losing registrar sends an email to the owner (and optionally admin) contact, informing about the transfer; this may include options to approve and/or deny the transfer. If neither explicitly approved nor denied, the transfer will be automatically finalized after 5 days.
Transfer Notes
- A .alsace domain transfer must be initiated with a so-called authorisation code, (auth-code) which can be obtained from the current registrar through the owner/admin contact of the domain.
- Ensure that your respective domain does not have a lock-status (clientTransferProhibited and/or serverTransferProhibited). This can be seen in WHOIS.
- If the domain has a client-side transfer lock, the owner can ask the current registrar to have the lock removed.
- These procedures only apply for domain transfers between registrars. For internal transfers between resellers, please consult our documentation about internal transfers/usertransfers.
Authorization Codes
- The format for auth info requires a minimum length of 8 characters and a maximum length of 32 characters.
- Additionally, auth info must contain at least one of each of the following three character types:
- Alphabetic characters: a-z; A-Z
- Numeric characters: 0-9
- Special characters: !;<=$%?&@[()]*^+-,'-{.|/}:~
