Transfer Procedure

The losing registrar will inform the domain’s owner/admin contact via email, potentially including options to approve or deny the transfer. If no explicit action is taken, the transfer completes automatically after 5 days.

Transfer Notes

  • A .nrw domain transfer must be initiated with an authorisation code (auth-code), which can be obtained from the current registrar through the domain’s owner/admin contact. Ensure the domain is not locked (clientTransferProhibited/serverTransferProhibited) by checking WHOIS. The losing registrar sends an email to the owner/admin contact about the transfer; it might involve options to approve/deny. Without explicit approval or denial, the transfer is auto-finalized after 5 days.
