Additional notes on a .org.es transfer

  • Confirmation email sent by the .ES registry to the administrative contact must be confirmed within 10 days, otherwise the request will time-out.
  • This email can not be re-sent, so we advise to check if the mailbox is still in use and accessible, before you request the transfer. Only option to resend the email is to cancel the transfer and start it again. Transfer can be cancelled from the control panel, from the Transfer Queue. Once cancelled, please delete the domain from the same page.
  • The owner will not change during the transfer.
  • If a transfer is completed after the domain expired at the previous registrar, we will enable auto-renewal for this domain so that it does not expire. This does not depend on your account settings for auto-renewal. You can change this from the domain details.

Email address of existing admin contact cannot be changed. Instead create a new contact handle and update the domain (do no update the current handle). 

IMPORTANT: If DNS is not synchronized on the registry side, this is because there is one or more handles not correctly filled. Remember that all used handles must have the following details filled in:

  • For private individual (company field is NOT filled in)

Once you update the handles, please update again the domain with the DNS and check the registry if they have been changed.
