For several operations related to domain registration, ICANN requires that we get authorization from the registrant contact for the domain or confirmation that the email address for the registrant contact is valid. To get authorization or confirmation, we send an email that contains a link. You have between 3 and 15 days to click the link, depending on the operation and the top-level domain. After that time, the link stops working.
Domain Registration Confirmation
We always send confirmation and authorization emails to the email address for the registrant contact for a domain. For some TLDs, we're required to send email to the old and new email addresses for the registrant contact in the following cases:
If you encounter issues while resending the authorization email for a domain transfer, you can contact AWS Support for free. For more information, see Contacting AWS Support about domain registration issues.
This test will return WHOIS registration results for a DOMAIN name. Depending on the registrar, you can see various information like who is it registered to, when it was registered and when it expires, where the DNS is hosted, and more. In some cases, you will be able to go the registrar's site to get more information.
To streamline documenting the domain name transfer process, I registered difficulttotransfer.com at Network Solutions. What I experienced was a registration process that was full of deceptive patterns.
After removing the hosting package and switching the domain registration period to one year, I clicked the Secure Checkout button. Instead of going to a payment details page, I was presented with a message that said I could prevent ranking lower in Google if I buy an SSL certificate.
I clicked on the Place your Order button, and the confirmation page had one more upsell to pitch me. They presented a valuable registered domain they thought I would be interested in and stated they would negotiate to get the domain for me for $10. Having decades of experience buying and selling domains, this offer, along with knowing how unlikely they were to succeed, made it completely unrealistic to me. I suspected this offer primarily existed as a way to charge money to backorder a domain, which is free to do at their sister company, SnapNames. It was a hard pass from me.
While researching and documenting the registration and transfer process, Verisign raised the price of .com domains. Some of the prices in the screenshots for different registrars may have increased. Also, at the time of publication, Network Solutions had not raised their promotional checkout prices yet.
After you buy a domain, you must verify your email address to complete your domain registration. Check your email account for several emails from Shopify that you need to review. These emails include details about the following:
If a registry organization contacts you to verify your domain, then you need to provide proof of your registration information. Each registry organization has different requirements for what kinds of documentation you can provide, for example, a passport, business bills, or proof of business address. If you change your business address or have difficulty proving your registration information, then contact Shopify Support.
The following domain extensions don't include WHOIS privacy when you buy a custom domain through Shopify. If you buy one of these domain extensions, then your personal contact information is available in public domain registration records.
Until June 30, 2020, the Domain Registration Policy only apply to the so-called document-based domain application. The essence of this is that the application and the most important changes (eg name change, transfer, registrar change) can only be made on the basis of a document. From 1 July 2020, the Regulations created an opportunity for the so-called confirmation procedure-based application, which results in a confirmation procedure-based domain, which provides simpler administration because the changes in domain data are confirmed by the registrant using his email address (and possibly phone number), no documents are required. However, this type of procedure is not yet provided by all registrars.
The essence of this is that when registering a domain or perform certain changes related to the domain, the applicants receive an email in which they find a link to a website and on this page accept the statements required for the application or approves the change. This is called a one-factor confirmation procedure.
If you choose the higher security, like the two-factor confirmation procedure, after the confirmation on the website, a code will be sent to your phone number by SMS or phone call, which you have to enter on the given page.
Why factor data are important? The essential difference between the document based and confirmation procedure based domain is that in the case of the latter, the domain user (or somebody) has full control over the domain in the possession of the email address or, in the case of two-factor procedure, the email address and telephone number. E.g. the domain can be even transferred! Thus, it is especially important that the domain user takes special care to maintain the disposition over these factor data. For example, for natural person registrants, we do not recommend providing a work email address or phone number.
This is registrar dependent, but most likely the payment will follow and the registrar will submit the domain request to the Registry. The Registry will then initiate the confirmation process. In the case of a one-factor procedure (based on only one email address), the applicants will click on the link in the received email to a website where they can accept the statements required to apply for the domain and confirm their application. In the case of a two-factor procedure, you must also enter the code you received on your phone on the page.
After the confirmation procedure, the domain is usually registered in less than one day, while the Registry verifies the compliance of the applicant and the application with the Policy. Thereafter the right of use of the domain is granted conditionally to the applicant, of which the applicant is notified by the registrar. If no complaint is received about the registration within 8 days, the delegation will become final.
The transfer of the confirmation-procedure based domains Domain transfer (more specifically, the transfer of the right to use a domain) is discussed in detail in this article. The bottom line is that the new applicant (to whom the domain is transferred) enters into a domain maintenance contract with a registrar. The registrar submits the application (and the waiver/transfer statement, if any), to the register. If the application meets the conditions of the Policy, the Registry will carry out the confirmation procedure with the original registrant, during which the registrant may approve or even refuse the transfer.
Changing registrar in the case of confirmation-procedure based domains If you want to switch registrars, you will need to enter into a new domain maintenance agreement with your chosen new registrar for your domain. The new registrar submits the request to the register, and the Registry conducts a confirmation procedure with the you, during which you can approve the registrar change. The Registry then registers the registrar change. The contract with the previous registrar is automatically terminated.
A registrant of a domain registered on the basis of a confirmation procedure can also apply for the domain at the new registrar based on a document. In this case he has not only changed his registrar, but he is converting the domain registration from a confirmation procedure-based to a document based one. In this case, the migration process described below must take place in parallel with the conclusion of the contract with the registrar and the Registry will carry out the confirmation procedure with the registrant.
Transition from confirmation procedure-based registration to document based registration A domain registered with confirmation procedure can be converted by its registrant to a document based registered domain. In this case, the registrant must declare the transfer included in a private document providing conclusive evidence or in a notarized deed (including the electronically authenticated document). The statement must be sent by the registrant to the registrar and forwarded by the registrar to the register. The Registry then performs the confirmation procedure with the registrant.
Transition from a one-factor confirmation procedure to a two-factor confirmation procedure or vice versa It is possible to switch from a one-factor confirmation procedure to a two-factor confirmation procedure by the registrant requesting it from the registrar and giving the telephone number. The registrar forwards the request to the Registry and the Registry conducts the two-factor confirmation procedure with the registrant.In the case of a change from a two-factor procedure to a one-factor procedure, both factors are checked.
I'm trying to transfer my domain from another registrar to Amazon Route 53, but I didn't receive the confirmation or authorization emails. Why didn't I receive these emails, and how can I resend them so that I can transfer my domain?
Domain registration and management is regulated by an organization known as ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). ICANN sets the policy and rules for domain management to which all domain registrars and hosting companies must abide.
On December 1, 2016, a new domain transfer policy came into effect. Its goal is to protect domain security and ensure a smooth process for the verification, transfer and updating of domain registrations.
When transferring a domain, explicit confirmation from current and new registrants is required before a change can be completed. An email is sent to the new registrant to confirm the transfer. Once confirmation is made, a second is sent to the original owner to accept the change. 2ff7e9595c
