Successful domain registration via RCP or API requires:

• the domain's contact handles including:
  
  • For private person
    • Name of the registrant must be correct, abbreviations are not allowed.
  • For companies
    • Correct and valid company registration number required
• two or more pre-configured nameservers or a nameserver group
  
  

The registry regularly checks on correctness of registration data!
Correct and valid company registration number is required, the number can be verified via this database.
Name of the registrant must be written fully and correct, abbreviations (John D.) are not allowed.

Please note that:

• Incomplete information (e.g. a typing error in the name) can only be corrected by doing a trade
• Fake data in the handles can lead to deletion of the domain name by the Registry.

REGISTRATION OF A RESERVED .lt DOMAIN NAME

• Currently, it is not possible to directly register a reserved .lt domain via RCP.
• If you want to do so, send an email to support@openprovider.com with all the details of the domain name (Contact Handles, Nameserver Records)
• Correct and valid company registration number is required, the number can be verified via this database as the registry will check for the sanity of the data.
• If the domain is to be registered in the name of an individual, Passport Number must be specified in the Owner Contact Handle.
• Openprovider will check with the registry, if it meets all the requirements and will revert you back.
• Upon the reseller's confirmation, we will register the domain name and add it to your portfolio.

Successful domain transfer requires:

• the domain's contact handles including:
  • For companies
    • Company registration number required
• two or more pre-configured nameservers or a nameserver group

The domain holder may not change during the transfer request. Please review the whois and your handle before initiating the transfer.

Transfer requests must start at domreg.lt using the following procedure:

Procedure

1. Log in to the registrant panel using the RN code of the domain
2. Select the domains you wish to transfer
   
   
   
   
   
3. Indicate a new registrar from the dropdown "Hosting Concepts B.V. d/b/a Registrar.eu (www.openprovider.com)"
   
   
4. 
   Within 7 days after this operation, order the transfer in Openprovider, otherwise the transfer request will time out.
   
   

After successfully requesting the transfer in Openprovider, the transfer will be finished realtime.

Additional notes on a .lt transfer

Details about selecting a registrar are listed on the registry's website.

If the registrant does not or no longer have access to the registrant website:

1. Check the whois for the registrant's e-mail address
2. Ask the current registrar for the Registrant ID (RN code)
3. Generate an activation code through https://registrant.domreg.lt/rngen

In case your current provider is not aware about the .LT transfer process and is not familiar with the RN code which you need, please refer them to this information page from the .LT Registry:

https://www.domreg.lt/en/faq/for-domain-registrants/how-to-transfer-servicing-registrar/

In order to transfer-out the domain towards an other registrar, the registrant will need a Registrant ID. This Registrant ID can be requested by the Openprovider Reseller (not by the registrant end-customer)  via support@openprovider.com

RN Code of the domain ALWAYS changes after the domain is transferred to a new registrar.

RN Code is a part of registrant object.
The registrant object in .lt registry is created by the Registrar.
*Registrar submits EPP command <create contact>;
*DAS server responds with a result code of 1000 and with a message containing with a newly created object ID and creation date.

As the Registrant object is created by the Registrar, it can not be managed / used by other Registrar.

Owner change (trade)

Trade requests are initiated at the registry's website domreg.lt
(NOTE: a transfer and trade at the same time are not supported! First transfer the domain with keeping the same registrant, once the transfer is finished, you can submit a trade)

Procedure

1. The current registrant logs in to domreg.lt and starts a trade request.
2. He indicates the name and e-mail address of the new registrant. If the domain is currently registered with another registrar and you want to move it to Openprovider, also choose a new registrar (Openprovider is listed as Hosting Concepts B.V.)
3. Once the registrant has initiated this trade, the reseller orders the trade in Openprovider within 7 days, ensuring that the name and e-mail address match the provided data.
   
   

• The period of the domain is reset to one year
• Trade is not allowed for the first 30 days after initial registration of a domain name

In exceptional cases, where initiating a trade through the registry's website is not possible (e.g. if the trade must be done during the first 30 days after the registration), we can assist in a form-based trade.
The costs of such a trade are €25,00 excluding VAT and excluding the regular trade fee.

Other update

• domain update - by updating associated handles
• processed in realtime

Delete

• deletion - processed in realtime
• deletion leads to 30 day quarantine

During the quarantine the domain can be re-registered by its original owner. After these 30 days the registry will keep the domain reserved for up to 24 hours (random interval) before releasing it for registration again.

Restore / reactivate

A restore can be done via the restore queue in the control panel or by API.
