There are no restrictions, everyone can register a .BE domain name on a first come, first served basis.
By transferring a domain name to us, you will renew it for one year.
In order to proceed with a transfer:
- the domain name’s owner must approve the request by providing us the autorisation code. His email address must be valid to receive this code.
- the domain name must not be locked against transfers at the registry.
Steps:
In order to initiate a transfer, an authorization code is needed. It can be requested by the current registrar or by us and will be sent by the registry to the registrant's email address. An authorization code is valid for 7 days, so it must be provided to us during this delay otherwise the transfer will fail. If the request is done by us, the email will include a link in order to return the code to us automatically.
Once the transfer has been finalized, the domain name's expiration date is extended for a one year period starting from the date of the end of transfer.
Domain names in quarantine status
When a domain name is in the quarantine status, it becomes inaccessible for forty days. The only one who can reactivate the domain name is the registrar who put it in quarantine. However, the domain name holder can also have the domain transferred to a new registrar by initiating a transfer from quarantine. The domain name will then be transferred and reactivated in the same operation.
Transfer with change of registrant
It is possible to trade the domain name with a change of registrar.
