Additional details for registration
- When you register, you state your legal form, for example private individual, sole proprietorship, general partnership, private limited company, public limited company, foundation, association, cooperative or religious organisation. Foreign companies or branches can also be specified.

Transfer
Transferring a .amsterdam
- Request the transfer code from your current registrar and pass it on to your new registrar, who will request the transfer from the registry.
- Check the WHOIS beforehand to make sure there's no transfer lock on the domain name. If your current registrar has set a lock, you can ask them to remove it as the registrant.
- The registry lets your current registrar know that a transfer is in progress. They then send the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact too, an email in which you can approve or reject the transfer.
- If you neither approve nor reject the transfer, it will be completed automatically after 5 days.
- You can't transfer the domain name within 60 days of registration.
The transfer code
- To transfer .amsterdam, you need a transfer code. The registrant or administrative contact requests it from the current registrar.
- The code is 8 to 32 characters long and contains at least one letter, one number and one special character, such as !, $, %, ?, &, @ or +.
