TRANSFER PROCESS
2.A. Steps for Transferring Your Domain Name Registration
Upon transfer completion, functions like RENEW, MODIFY DNS, etc., can be executed via your Account Manager. Provide all required data through the online transfer application, make the necessary payment, and update your Administrative Contact's email. HSJ.Host will seek transfer approval from this email. The transfer will initiate upon receiving the Administrative Contact's approval. Transfers get accepted or rejected by the previous registrar within five (5) days.
2.B. Failed or Rejected Transfer Requests
HSJ.Host may accept or decline your domain name transfer application for various reasons, including but not limited to:
Rejection by the current Registrar.
Recent registration or transfer of the domain name.
Locked status of the domain by the Registry or previous registrar.
Expired domain names.
Changes in Domain Name Registrant or Account.
Pending legal issues or disputes related to the domain name.
2.C. Terms for Transferring Domain Names
Post successful transfer, you remain the domain name's registrant while HSJ.Host becomes the registrar of record.
