Requirements
Who can register a .xxx?
- .xxx is intended for members of a specific community. If you're not a member, you can only block the name: you secure it, but you can't actively use it.
- You can later switch a registered name from blocked to active, or the other way round, under the same conditions as at registration.
Additional details for registration
- Provide correct and valid details for the registrant. If details about your membership of the community are missing, the registry will contact the registrant directly.
Good to know when registering
- You can also register a name defensively. The name is then blocked and isn't actively in use.
- After a successful registration, the registry places a 60-day transfer lock on the domain name.
Transfer
Transferring a .xxx
- You start the transfer with your new registrar using the transfer code. The registry forwards the request and notifies your current registrar.
- Your current registrar sends the registrant, and sometimes also the administrative contact, an email about the transfer. You can usually approve or reject the transfer in that email.
- If you don't respond, the transfer is completed automatically after 5 days.
- There mustn't be a transfer lock on the domain name. You can check this in the WHOIS. If your registrar has placed a lock on it, ask them to remove it.
- You can't transfer the domain name within 60 days of registration.
The transfer code
- You always need a transfer code. The registrant or administrative contact requests it from the current registrar.
- The code must contain at least one letter, one digit and one special character, such as ! $ % ? & @ * + - or :.
