Requirements
Who can register a .abogado?
- Registering a .abogado domain name is reserved for lawyers with a recognised licence to practise. A validation agent appointed by the registry checks this.
- Recognised legal institutions can register too, such as law firms, law faculties, professional bodies like the bar association, and courts. They're also checked first.
- Before registering, you declare that you're authorised to register the domain name and that all your details are correct and complete.
- If you provide incorrect details, the registry can delete your registrations across all its extensions, including .law and .abogado.
Additional details for registration
- You provide the extra details needed to verify you as a legal professional or legal institution. The registry can also request these details later on.
- The validation agent may contact you directly for the check.
Good to know when registering
- The registration isn't processed straight away. An external organisation checks your details.
- The domain name is provisionally assigned to you, and you can already use it while the check is in progress. The check usually takes 1 to 2 working days.
- If you don't pass the check, the domain name is revoked. So it's best not to put your website live until the check has been approved.
- The validation costs are included in the registration price and aren't refunded, even if the check fails.
- After registration, you can't transfer the domain name for 60 days.
- For a premium name, you need a special code issued by the registry.
Transfer
Transferring a .abogado
- You start the transfer with the transfer code at the new registrar. The registry then notifies the current registrar of the transfer.
- The current registrar sends the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact as well, an email about the transfer. You can often approve or reject the transfer in that email.
- If you neither approve nor reject the transfer, it's completed automatically after 5 days.
- The domain name mustn't have a transfer lock. You can check this in the WHOIS. If the registrar has set a lock, the registrant can ask the current registrar to remove it.
- You can't transfer the domain in the first 60 days after registration.
The transfer code
- You need a transfer code to transfer a domain.
- The registrant or the administrative contact requests the code from the current registrar.
