Valid CNPJ number (VAT number) for company owner contact (CNPJ must be given in the following format: NN.NNN.NNN/NNNN-NN)
Preconfigured DNS zone with at least 1 valid A-record. Zone can be verified via registry's DNS checker

NB: for registered domain names, their variations with additional ASCII characters are not possible. i.e. if domainname.org.br is registered, domain-name.org.br can't be registered. Such variations can be registered by the original domain owner only.

Important:

In order for an organization to be eligible for ORG.BR name registrations, it must prove it is a non-governmental and a not-for-profit organization. Therefore our trustee service can NOT be used. After registration of a .org.br domain it is reserved for two weeks while the registry waits for the documents proving non-profit status.

Registrations are not real-time and can take up to 14 days.

Transfer

Since the trustee service is NOT available for ORG.BR domain names, the transfer is done by the domain owner himself on registry website. The customer needs to login and select "Toweb Brazil" as the new registrar. Additionally, you should request a transfer in our system, so we know to which account we have to assign the domain as soon as it was transferred by the domain holder.

Authorization code required	no
Method of confirmation
Registration period after transfer	unchanged
Average transfer time
Advanced and simple transfers available	Contact our Sales department to check if easy transfer of 100 or more .org.br domains is available.

A .org.br domain can only be deleted by using the NIC.BR online form, which is only available in Portuguese.
