Requirements
Who can register a .co.at?
- You can't use a PO box as the registrant's address.
- Under Austrian law, when you register a .co.at domain name you enter into an agreement with the registry NIC.at.
- You'll find more legal information about .co.at registrations and about the details shown in the whois on the registry's website.
Transfer
Transferring a .co.at
- For a standard transfer, you request the transfer code from your current registrar and pass it on to your new registrar. The transfer is then processed straight away.
- If the transfer code doesn't work or your current registrar won't provide it, your new registrar can request a token from NIC.at. NIC.at sends that token to the registrant's email address.
- You forward that token to your new registrar, who uses it to request the transfer. It's then processed within about 5 minutes.
- If the registrant's email address no longer works, there's an emergency procedure. In that case, please contact WebOké.
The transfer code
- You request the transfer code from your current registrar.
- The code must be at least eight characters long and contain at least one number, one letter and one special character.
- If you use the token procedure, the token is valid for 21 days and can only be used by the registrar that requested it.

Change of registrant
Change of registrant
- When you change the registrant, both the current and the new owner receive an email. Both must approve the change; no separate form is needed.
- If the change isn't approved within 10 days, the request lapses.
- If you submit a new request while another one is still pending, the previous request is cancelled.
- The domain name's registration period simply carries on when the registrant changes.
Renewal, cancellation and quarantine
- If you don't renew your .co.at domain name through WebOké and don't have it cancelled either, the domain goes back to the registry. You'll then receive an invoice from the registry yourself and pay for the renewal directly to them.
- If you have the domain name cancelled, it's deleted at the registry.
- A cancelled domain name can be restored up to 59 days after deletion.
- If the domain name was handed back to the registry instead of being cancelled, it can't be restored.
