What should I do before transferring a domain name to pairNIC?
Before you try to transfer the domain name, you will need to check the domain name in WHOIS. Check when the domain name was registered (the Created date) to make sure it is at least 61 days old. Domain names must be registered for at least 61 days before they can be transferred. ORG, BIZ, INFO, US, and CN domain names will also have lines listed if they can not be transferred. Check the Status lines for any of these notes. Also, check to make sure the domain name will not expire soon. There could be problems if the domain name is within seven days of the expiration date. Next, make sure you have access to the e-mail address that is listed for the Administrative Contact. If you do not have access to this address, you must update it before you request the transfer. All domain names have a special Transfer Authorization Code. A Transfer Authorization Code is 6-16 characters long and serves as a password for the domain name. The Transfer Authorization Code is needed to transfer the domain
