Registration

 

To start the registration procedure, please make sure that the owner-handle you are going to use contains a passport or identification number. (Even when the Registrant is a company)
Once the registration has been submitted the registry will send an online form to us, which we will forward to you. This form needs to be confirmed within 14 days, otherwise it will time out.

Once the online form has been processed the registration will be accepted by the registry. Once accepted the domain will be in a waiting period for 10 till 16 days, during which the registry evaluates the request.

The technical check for .hu domains is a bit more strict than other TLDs. Should you encounter any difficulties concerning technical configuration, please check the tool supplied by the registry;
http://www.domain.hu/domain/English/regcheck/
The main difference to other DNS checks is that the registry requires a postmaster@domain.hu to be active on the mailserver that you inserted in the DNS zone. Make sure that the mailserver is already accepting mail for the postmaster mailbox in the domain you are requesting.

 

Transfer

 

Needs to be done manually by the Support. What we need are the contact handles and nameservers and kvk forms and copy ID of the registrant send in an e-mail to support.
Please make sure the KvK number and VAT number are entered in the handle of the owner.
We can then forward this to the registry as soon as they have receive it they can generate a form and this form needs to be filled in and signed by the owner.
The owner needs to send it to the faxnumber given on the form. As soon as the Registrar receives it it will be send to the Registry and they will check if everything is OK.
Also needed is a KvK number and VAT number.
