When you request a transfer for your .NAME domain name to NETIM, the procedure below is followed. After transfer, we become the registrar of your domain name.

Requirements:

The domain name must not have been registered or transfered within the last 60 days or renewed within the last 45 days.

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

Also to proceed with the transfer:

• the domain name’s owner or administrative contact must approve the request to the registry.
• the domain name must not be locked against transfers. 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 transfer request to the .NAME registry with the autorization code. It the latter accepts, we will ask by e-mail the admin contact as well as the owner to approve the request. Both must approve and reply within 5 days.

• If all replies are positive within 5 days, the transfer will be carried out.
• If no reply is received within 5 days, the request will be cancelled
• If a refusal from the owner or admin contact is received, the request will be 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. You can transfer your domain whenever you want, no need to wait for the expiration in order to complete the domain transfer.

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

• The owner's and admin's e-mail address must be valid in order to receive the approval request.
