Transfer procedure


Requirements:

The domain name must not have been registered or transfered within the last 60 days

To initiate the transfer of a .ME domain name, you will be asked to provide an authorization code (AuthID). You can obtain it from your current domain name's registrar.

In order to proceed with the transfer, the current registrar must accept the transfer. So you must notify the current registrar of your wish to change the registrar to "NETIM". 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 .ME registry with the autorization code:

  • In the event of acceptance, the transfer is initiated
  • In the event of refusal, the transfer is cancelled.

Then the registry will ask for the current registrar to accept the request:

  • In the event of acceptance, the transfer is immediatly carried out.
  • If no reply is received, the transfer is carried out.
  • In the event of refusal, the transfer is cancelled.

Once the transfer has been finalised, the domain name's expiration date is extended for a one-year period. For example, if the domain expires on 2012-12-30 , the new expiration date will then be 2013-12-30.

  

Important information

  • Deadline for transfer: the day before expiration of the domain name
  • Best date for transfer: Not less than 1 week before expiration of the domain name
