Requirements
Who can register a .eco?
- To activate your .eco domain, you need to create a .eco profile.
- When you create that profile, you also take the .eco pledge.
Additional details for registration
- In your .eco profile, you enter who the registrant is and, where applicable, the type of organisation.
- You state what you focus on and what sustainability actions you take.
- You enter the location or locations of your organisation or activities.
Good to know when registering
- After registration, you'll receive an email inviting you to activate your .eco profile. Your domain only becomes active once your profile is complete.
- If you don't respond, you'll receive reminders after 1, 3, 7, 14 and 30 days.
- First you create a .eco user account. Then you fill in your profile details and take the .eco pledge.
- Once your profile is complete, you'll receive an email confirming that your domain is active.
- If you've lost the activation email, you can have it resent using a tool provided by the registry.
- After registration, you can't transfer your domain to another registrar for 60 days.
Transfer
Transferring a .eco
- You start the transfer at the new registrar using your domain's transfer code.
- Check beforehand that your domain doesn't have a transfer lock. You can see this in the WHOIS.
- If your current registrar has set a transfer lock, you as the registrant can ask for it to be removed.
- The registry notifies your current registrar of the transfer. They then send the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact too, an email about the transfer.
- In that email, you may be able to approve or reject the transfer. If you do nothing, the transfer is completed automatically after 5 days.
- 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. As the registrant or administrative contact, you request it from your current registrar.
- The code is 6 to 16 characters long.
- The code must contain at least one letter, one digit and one hyphen.
