Requirements
Who can register a .com.gr?
- Not every name can be registered. The registry EETT publishes a list of rejected domain names on its website.
Good to know when registering
- The registry first checks your application automatically. If the name isn't on the list of restricted names, your domain name will be active within 3 hours at most.
- This initial activation is temporary and doesn't yet give you any rights to the domain name.
- The registry EETT reviews your application within 4 to 8 weeks and approves or rejects it. Only then is the registration final.
Transfer
Transferring a .com.gr
- To transfer your domain name, you need a transfer code.
- The registrant details in the transfer request must exactly match the details the registry holds for the current registrant. If they don't match, the transfer will fail.
The transfer code
- You can only start the transfer with a valid transfer code.
Owner
Change of registrant
- The registry EETT reviews a request for a new registrant within 4 to 8 weeks and approves or rejects it.
