Requirements
Who can register a .jobs?
- Only businesses can register a .jobs domain name. Registration in the name of a private individual isn't allowed.
- Your business must already have an existing website.
- The domain name can't contain the word jobs. So you can register yourcompany..jobs, but not yourcompanyjobs..jobs.
- The full registration requirements are in the registry's FAQ, questions 15 to 18. You can also contact the registry directly with questions about the domain name.
Additional details for registration
- You provide the address of your business's existing website, preferably the same name under a different extension, such as yourcompany.com.
- You can also include a short description of your business. This is optional, and the description can be no longer than 128 characters.
Documents
- Want a generic domain name that isn't directly related to your business name? Then you can send supporting documents for your application directly to the registry.
Good to know when registering
- Registering a .jobs domain name can take up to 8 weeks.
Transfer
Transferring a .jobs
- You request the transfer code from your current registrar and enter it when you start the transfer.
- Check the WHOIS beforehand to make sure the domain name doesn't have a transfer lock. If the current registrar has set a lock, ask them, as the registrant, to remove it.
- Once the request has been submitted, the registry notifies your current registrar. They then send the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact too, an email about the transfer.
- You can approve or reject the transfer in that email. If you do nothing, the transfer is completed automatically after 5 days.
The transfer code
- You need a transfer code to transfer a .jobs domain name.
- The registrant or the administrative contact requests the transfer code from the current registrar.
