Requirements
Who can register a .شبكة?
- There are no restrictions for .شبكة: anyone can register a domain name.
Good to know when registering
- After a successful registration, the registry puts a 60-day transfer lock on your domain name. During that period, you can't transfer it to another registrar.
Transfer
Transferring a .شبكة
- You need a transfer code to start the transfer. As the registrant or administrative contact, you request it from your current registrar.
- Check beforehand that there's no transfer lock on the domain name. You can see this in the WHOIS.
- Has your current registrar set a transfer lock? Then ask that registrar to remove it.
- The transfer is submitted to the registry, and the registry lets your current registrar know that the domain name is leaving.
- Your current registrar sends the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact as well, an email about the transfer. You may be able to approve or refuse the transfer in that email.
- Don't approve the transfer, but don't refuse it either? Then it's completed automatically after 5 days.
The transfer code
- A transfer code is required to transfer a .شبكة domain name. You get it from your current registrar via the registrant or the administrative contact.
- The transfer code is at least 8 and at most 32 characters long.
- The code must contain at least one letter, one number and one special character, such as ! $ % ? & @ * + - or ~.
Owner
Change of registrant
- ICANN's transfer rules apply when you move a .شبكة domain name to a different owner.
