In this guide, we will explain the steps to follow for the incoming domain transfer.
Mandatory checks
The following points should be checked before initiating an incoming transfer from a domain to us:
- The domain name has been registered with the current registrar for more than 60 days.
- The domain name has not undergone a transfer for more than 60 days.
- The domain name is in "OK" status with the current provider.
- The domain name is unlocked against the transfer (not required for some extensions like ".FR")
- The transfer code of the recovered domain name must be correct and not expired (it expires within 7 days according to the registrar).
- There are at least 15 days left before the expiration date of your domain name.
- The owner contact e-mail address associated with the domain is fully functional and accessible. If this is not the case, it is mandatory to ask the current provider to change it before starting the transfer.
Incoming transfer
You must start by going to the client interface MAGIC or NUXIT.
Then, on the dashboard, click on the button ADD A DOMAIN of the section DOMAINSor follow the menu on the left DOMAIN.
Select the option TRANSFER YOUR DOMAIN. Then enter the domain WITHOUT WWW and click on the button CHECK.
The interface will first search for a few moments and then display the option to order the anonymous whois depending on the extension. The space also offers a form to fill in for the type of Registrant of the owner contact, whether it is an individual or an organization, but this too depends on the extension of the domain transferred to us.
Finally, the window asks to enter the code Auth CODE of the domain to be transferred. Click on SEND.
A box will appear to confirm the order and pay the invoice. Click on BUY.
The interface displays two notifications. One to indicate the number and details of the order.
The other indicates the initiation of the incoming transfer.
The naming convention for the chosen extension must be respected. In this case, the transfer will proceed without anomaly. The domain will be added to the list with the status Transfer on hold.
Very important
Once the transfer is launched, you have to validate the transfer initiation email sent to the owner contact's email address.
After this step, a termination request is automatically sent to the current registrar asking him to validate the transfer.
The registrar can oppose and stop the operation within 5 to 8 days.
In case of a positive response, or if no response is received within this period, the delegation will be transferred. In the event of a negative response from the current registrar, the initial deadline will be extended to 22 days.
