Can a change of registrar request be rejected?




Your current registrar may require you to reply to an e-mail authorizing the transfer of your domain names from their service. Failure to reply to such e-mail may cause a transfer rejection.

The losing registrar has the ability to reject a domain name transfer requests for the following reasons:

  • If the transfer request was initiated within the first 60 days of the original registration date
  • If there is a legal dispute over the Domain Name
  • If there is a pending bankruptcy of the Domain Name holder
  • If there is a dispute over the identity of the Domain Name holder
  • If the losing Registrar rejects the request (the 'discretion' of the losing Registrar)
  • If the registration is the subject of a litigation matter or trademark dispute
  • If the Domain Name is "on hold" for any reason
