Requirements
Who can register a .tirol?
- Anyone can register a .tirol domain name, whether you're an individual, business, organisation or association, as long as you want to show an economic, cultural, tourist, historical, social or other connection with the Austrian state of Tyrol.
- You'll find more details in the registry's general guidelines.
Good to know when registering
- After a successful registration, the registry places a 60-day transfer lock on your domain name.
- Reserved domain names are sold by the registry itself. You can only register such a name with an authorisation code bought from the registry.
Transfer
Transferring a .tirol
- You start the transfer with your domain name's transfer code. The request goes to the registry, which automatically notifies your current registrar.
- Your current registrar sends the registrant, and sometimes the administrative contact too, 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.
- Make sure there's no transfer lock on your domain name. You can check this in the WHOIS.
- If your current registrar has set a transfer lock, you as the registrant can ask for it to be removed.
- You can't transfer the domain name within 60 days of 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 8 to 32 characters long and contains at least one letter, one number and one special character.
Owner
Change of registrant
- ICANN's transfer rules apply when transferring to a different owner.
