Can a change of registrar request be rejected?

Portal Home > Knowledgebase > Domains > 3. Domain Transfers > 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
